the organization where im in for internship trying to make a training for instructors in how to implement web 2.0 in their class. can someone please suggest what is the nicest application should we trained them to use? For information, the instructors we try to train somehow do not get used to electronic environement.
Great question! I would suggest using wikis for a start. The University of Illinois has some excellent tutorials for instructors on how to implement web 2.0 tools into their classes.
What do you think?
Um, I’m not sure I know what you’re asking. What type of application are you looking for? A wiki isn’t really an application. Are you looking to do one-on-one training with instructors are have a resource that all instructors can access.
Diigo! www.diigo.com awesome for bookmarking, underlining, tagging, and sharing links. Private groups are a breeze to create, and very easy to handle.
Google Docs should be pretty high on the list too…
Take a look at http://www.c4lpt.co.uk/index.html to see what other educators, e-teachers and education-related people list their top 10 tools.
I agree with Vahid, Google docs is great for collaboration. I think what applications you use depends on the subject taught. Blogging applications such as Wordpress and Blogger are useful for most areas. I know it’s obvious, but YouTube is good for slideshows with voiceovers. SlideShare is also good for posting lectures.
