My Web 2.0 Tool Choice. Which tool, that we've learn in our ECI201 class, will I definitely be using in my future classroom? That tool with definitely be ThingLink (Check It Out Here)!
I really do love this online Web 2.0 platform. It allow students to learn so much more from just one picture. I'll be able to connect many more ideas to just one topic and allow students the opportunity to explore other topics. The tool allows you to make other connections. I could see it being used in my class as a replacement for unit overviews, lesson reviews, presentations, and supplemental aid for my lectures. Once you try the app, you'll be hooked to it.
Connection to 21st Century Classrooms. This platform allows for creative curriculum learning in the sense of creativity and innovation in the classroom. Actually, this is for any Web 2.0 tool. That's what we want to accomplish in our 21st century classroom. Our "old ways of teaching" are definitely in the past. Students don't respond well to those ways of teaching. We need to find new ways to reach them and Web 2.0 tools accomplish just that. Providing new innovative ways of communicating our content is accomplished through new Web 2.0 tools.
