Blog Post #8

Web 2.0 is all about collaboration and I can definitely be on board for that. I think collaboration in the world of education is even more important. There is a commercial on TV for Sprint where the narrator says, "7 people are e-mailing a file called final final revised final." I always laugh because I remember having to collaborate like that in the past 5 - 10 years. Using Zoho's writer application that allows real-time collaboration is a dream.

Other things I like to use would be blogs and YouTube. Unfortunately, both of these things have been blocked at my school in the past. I don't see random blogs becoming unblocked, but I have been fighting the good fight to get YouTube unblocked. There is a good chance that I will have my administrator convinced that YouTube has too much good information on it for it to be completely blocked. Once I get YouTube unblocked, then I can embed videos into my Moodle page. By the end of this year, I hope to get everything transferred to my Moodle page.
