I think that using web 2.0 technologies in the classroom is incredibly important, especially in our technological world. When using these technologies in the earlier grades, I think it is important to modify the topic of the assignment, however to teach them the basic skills in the programs early on. The earlier kids start to learn about technology, the better equipped they'll be for life later on.
I feel that wikipedia has the potential to be an incredible source for information, however it can also be extremely dangerous to use. If the student isn't careful, they can obtain totally false information and jeopardize their academics.
In the past week, I've found learning about power point incredible. I absolutely love the program, and I always have, however I'm enjoying learning more about it. This is one of the programs I know I couldn't do without! I feel that power point is an amazing resource for presentations, but only when used properly.
