Web 2.0 & Assessment Tools Session 434264025_87ab04961d.jpg

In today’s classroom, educational leaders must promote student learning that is dynamic, collaborative, and meets the demands of the 21st century in their schools, districts and counties. Administrators have greater responsibility to encourage their staff and faculty effectively leverage ever increasing technologies, such as Web 2.0 Tools, mobile learning devices and the Internet. This session will expose participants to several Web 2.0 tools that cut across all content areas. In addition, participants will get the chance to experiment with Google Forms.


Cross-Content Web 2.0 Tools

Administrators and teachers are discovering that new models of teaching and learning are required to meet the needs of a generation of learners who seek greater autonomy and connectivity. Web 2.0 tools provide opportunities to move away from the last century's highly centralized, industrial model of learning and toward individual learner empowerment through designs that encourage collaboration, creativity and problem solving. We would like to share with some profoundly simple, yet simply profound tools that are easily leveraged across all content areas.
