Presentation brief:
Faster broadband and improved wireless access is enabling our children to make use of many applications that are freely available on the web. These kinds of online applications are known as Web 2. As our children become more sophisticated users of the VLE, making use of Web 2 material is becoming more of a seamless process. This presentation aims to inform and illustrate how useful Web 2 activities can be and how they can offer a creative and stimulating input to the curriculum. Delegates will have an opportunity to try out a variety of Web 2 applications.
