1) The Web 2.0 Tool, Subject & Teacher you will use it for
2) How you will use it specifically
3) How it will help you to learn the content/lesson/unit, and any other information you want to include.

You may have to use the tool 1st in order to decide if it's a good fit for you. I will know if you haven't and I will know if you copy and paste.
