The amount of Web 2.0 tools that can be used in a classroom is mindboggling. One of the ideas that I have seen and plan on using in the upcoming school year is a wiki. I love the idea that an entire class, or even more than one class, can collaborate in the creation of the wiki. One student can add to a page, another can edit what the first one wrote, and yet another can insert music or a video. You can do about anything on a wiki.
The best part is that there is a wiki site especially designed for education: http://educationalwikis.wikispaces.com/
On this site, there are links to tutorial on "getting started" and on "ideas for classroom use." You have everything you need right there, at one site. I can’t wait to get my students started on their wiki!
