100 Essential Web 2.0 Tools for Teachers
There are new web 2.0 tools appearing every day. Although some of these tools were not originally meant for use in the classroom, they can be extremely effective learning tools for today’s technology geared students and their venturesome teachers. Many of these teachers are searching for the latest products and technologies to help them find easier and efficient ways to create productive learning in their students. More and more teachers are using blogs, podcasts and wikis, as another approach to teaching. We have created a list of 100 tools we think will encourage interactivity and engagement, motivate and empower your students, and create differentiation in their learning process. Use these tools to actively involve students in the classroom. Students using these tools will engage in gaining knowledge of the subjects they are studying instead of being passive listeners. These tools will highly motivate students to participate in assignments.  Using these tools will empower you to teach students to take ownership of their own projects. These tools allow students to use different learning styles. Students who are visual learners can read information; auditory learners can listen to information on podcasts.
