Web 2.0: Finding a Web 2.0 Tool - In Class Assignment May 28

As we have been discussing, there are numerous Web 2.0 tools out there. Examples are: Google Drive, Blogs, RSS, Wallwisher, Voki, Blabberize, Glogster, Live Binders and many many more!

Your task is to research Web 2.0 tools and how you would utilize the tool in specific academic content area. You can not choose Google Docs, Blogger, or Voki.

You must find the tool in Mr. Porfido's Bookmarked List

Create a New Post on Your Blog with:

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.
