Web 2.0

I actually agree that the blog will give us a more structured way of discussing about the web 2.0 tools we are learning in class, and all the topics we learn every class. For me as a student I agree that most of them are really useful and more these days as we have learned that everything is getting more on techonology. as Kattan said we were using it but without knowing really what were we using, I like the idea of studying like this is like a group-way of studying, but not as a physical group, it helps you to clarify your doubts in the moment and not waiting for the next day to see the person to ask a question that might not be nswered. For life, its actually updating us of what is happening around us. Business are using this and why not to start now and not to wait until we are out there wanting to use something in our business that we actually dont know. I find it really interesting and useful. Like everything not all the tools may be important for us right now, but knowing them at least will be helpful in any moment of our life.

There are some interesting comments here... one of the reasons why blogs are considered a good learning tool is because they allow people to reflect on what they know and learn, and gives them the opportunity to structure that knowledge. There is also the fact that by learning as a group instead of individually, there are more chances to get (and add) information from (and to) the pool of knowledge and information we are creating. This also means that, the more contributions, the richer the experience is. Asynchronous discussions also give everyone the opportunity to participate, as opposed to a more closed, time-restricted session.

Ricardo, I agree with u that blogs and all the web 2.0 tools overally give us a lot of learning opportunities. The problem is to follow all of that AND have a normal life and social networks (separated from the virtual ones). My computer starts to become my best friend...thats baaaad ;P :/
