DIGITAL. LITERACY. MATTERS.
Web 2.0 Tools
Web 2.0 tools will help you and your students produce and manage your own digital content, transforming your students from consumers of technology to creators of technology. Remember, it not the tool itself that's important; it's what you do with it.
Increasingly, publicly sharing your work for peer review has
become a part
of learning and
teaching .
One of the best ways of reinforcing your knowledge is sharing it with others.
