WEEK 12

I am not a teacher; only a fellow traveler of whom you asked the way. I pointed ahead–ahead of myself as well as of you.
George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) British dramatist, critic, writer.



In the last week in my Internet and Multimedia class I learned about Web 2.0. According to this web site http://www.maestrosdelweb.com/editorial/web2/ Web 2.0 is the representation of the evolution of traditional applications to web applications focused on the end user. Therefore, I understood that Web 2.0 are tools that are available in Internet to share some applications. I think that these tools are very important to use the Interner in a better way. Also, I appreciate all these applications because these help us to share information around the world and to develop new knowledge because it makes our life easier.

Additionally, the teacher explained us about Google Docs, it is use to create and edit documents. We shared some advantages and disadvantages of the use of it. For examples some advantages are: you can see and edit wherever you are, share your information and control who can access it. And a disadvantage of the use of it is that not everybody has acess to Internet.

In the classroom we develop an activity using Google Docs. It was very useful, because we can understand about how include Google Docs into our lesson plans. The activity was develop in pairs, and we had fun doing this activity. I think that without our theacher guide it would be so difficult to understand how it works. In my future life as a teacher This new program will help me to share my lesson plan and to send to my students their grades.

In conclusion, my last week was very useful because the teacher also explained us how to work on our digital portfolios. She gave us the installador of Cuadernia, and we were practicing the use of it. At the end of our class, the teacher explained us Prezi, she gave us an example of how to teach using this program. I will create a class using Prezi program. In my opinion using this program I will help my students to learn in an easy way about a topic.
