media type="custom" key="12042587"

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; text-align: justify;">**As far as new technologies are becoming more important in the education field, I would like to tell you about [|Web 2.0] and specifically, about some of its relevant applications. If there is a Web 2.0, there is a [|Web 1.0], being the first one the "participatory web" and the second, "the web-as-information-source" as Bart Decrem callls them. Let's have a look to the following pictures and explanation from** **Web 2.0 in Education & Profiles****:**

//The phrase "Web 2.0" comes from the business world, and while it has the ring of a marketing catch-phrase, actually describes a significant transition in the use of the Internet, or the World Wide Web. Web 1.0, or the Web that most of us have been fairly used to using for some years now, has largely been a one-way medium: this is when we look for information on the web. Web 1.0 was the natural result of our existing mindsets of how information is transferred, and has been a reflection of our industrial culture: experts (or businesses) dispensing identical knowledge (or products) to mass students (or consumers).//

//Web 2.0 is a// //two-way medium, representing the next phase of usage of the internet, and a change that (quite reasonably) has people making a comparison to the advent of the printing press--in Web 2.0 almost anyone can become a publisher, or a "content producer." In Web 2.0 the creation of material or information on the Web is as much a part of our experience as the finding or reading of data has been in Web 1.0. And in Web 2.0 the content created by regular users can be much, and sometimes almost all, of the value from a website.//


 * So, we can say that Web 2.0 is:**
 * **<span style="color: #5049f3; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Collaborative **
 * **<span style="color: #5049f3; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Participative **
 * **<span style="color: #5049f3; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Everybody can generate contents. **
 * **<span style="color: #5049f3; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Add information easily. **

Blogs are usually the work of a single individual, occasionally of a small group, and often are themed on a single subject. //Blog// can also be used as a verb, meaning //to maintain or add content to a blog//.
