Classroom 2.0 Live - learning on a Saturday afternoon

I just participated in a Classroom 2.0 live event on Elluminate. The special guest was Terry Freedman, talking about using Web 2.0 tools in the classroom. It was a great session with lot of links to resources that I am eager to investigate. There were over 96 participants from all over the world joining it. The chat was great although, at times, I lost what Terry was saying while I was typing responses. That is why the archived streams are such a valuable asset.
I am continually amazed by all of the wonderful opportunities for professional development and sharing that are available to us through such platforms and Elluminate and EdTechTalk, and many others. Being part of these discussions keeps me energized and dedicated to keeping our school moving forward with 21st century learning. Of course, I can do nothing without the cooperation of my teachers who thankfully are embracing and using these tools on a much more regular basis. Thanks again to Steve Hargadon and all the wonderful educators who facilitate these conversations,.

I am interested to know what types of Web 2.0 tools were discussed? I just finished a paper about how important it is to include Web 2.0 into the classroom. I would love to learn what others have to say about this.

Hi, Shannon,
Here is a link to the archives page:
http://live.classroom20.com/archive-and-resources.html
Today's show is first on the list. You can click on the link to view the recorded show in Elluminate.
Also, they have listed the extensive resources below the description of the show.
We have been using Google Apps for Education and Moodle primarily in our school. Some teachers have used blogs, wikis, and voice thread, as well.
Will you post your paper in .pdf format on this site for all of us to read?
