learning 2.0 - characteristics

 :: connected
  : students, staff, & faculty

 :: global audience
  : facebook, slideshare, YouTube


 :: participatory
  : commenting as part of assignments


 :: project based learning
  : authentic assessments and real clients

 :: technology as a mindset, not a skill
  : blogs, wikis, multimedia, social networking
  : collaborative virtual spaces
  : permanent records of work and conversations

a summary

 :: sharing as the norm

 :: learning is more about how than what

 :: participation and collaboration are key

a proposition

 :: learning how to be open is essential to
 engaging in social learning and learning 2.0
is a step in that direction.
students as makers.
students as collaborators.
   students as teachers.

sharing the stuff they know.

 making learning relevant,
  interesting, meaningful.

  making open the norm.
