Week 1 - Introduction

 

This is Week 1 of your eight week self directed learning quest. It’s aim is to help you to become more familiar with Web 2.0 in general and the tools that people are using regularly. We hope that by going through each task at your own pace, you will become more confident in using Web 2.0 Tools. It will also help you to better understand and be able to answer questions from staff and students about Web 2.0. But most importantly it gives you the time and permission to play!

 

Your challenges this week:

Task 1:  Familiarise yourself with the quest by clicking on the About and the FAQlinks.

 

Task 2: Take the time to have a look at these videos to get a better idea of what Web 2.0 means.  

 

Video 1 - Tim O’Reilly (51 secs)

 

Video 2 - The Machine is Using Us (4.51 mins)

 

Video 3 - An Anthropological Guide to Youtube and Web 2.0 (55.34 mins)

The creator of Video 3 above talks about the impact of users on Internet content - the first ten minutes are a great introduction to Web 2.0

 

Video 4 - What is Web 2.0 (10.11 mins)

 

Video 5 -Did You Know 4.0(4.45 mins)

A look at how technology has changed the world and the sharing of information - what might happen next?

Google Docs looks an interesting resource to explore (from video 3).
