Are you a web 0.0 or web 1.0 or web 2.0 teacher?
• Web 0.0: read textbooks, books only
• Web 1.0: email, webquests, look up information online
• Web 2.0: Refers to a perceived second generation of web development and design, that facilitates communication, secure information sharing, interoperability, and collaboration on the World Wide Web. Web 2.0 concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities, hosted services, and applications; such as social-networking sites, video-sharing sites, wikis, and blogs.

ePals Exchanges
The grade 2 students had so much fun reading emails from their new friends. They learned many ways they were alike as well as different.
The student groups wrote about different aspects of their schools and videoed themselves to create a "documentary" about their school and community. We then exchanged "culture parcels" with the other class.
Louisiana and United Kingdom
