(Jen Wagner)
connectivity
communication
collaboration
(Chris Betcher)
responsive
conversation
everywhere
global
usercentric
non-hierachal
inclusive
participatory
non-discriminatory
non-linear
(Durff)
learning network
open source learning
(Brian Crosby)
Free (usually)
All these definitions were arrived by using a Web 2.0 tool called Twitter. My network of friends were very generous to offer their perspectives on Web 2.0.
My favorite word for defining Web 2.0 is "collaborating." Web 2.0 is about using collaborative technologies like wikis, nings, social networks, google docs, etc.
It is about sharing and learning together - students to students, teachers to teachers, teachers to students, AND even students to teachers!
