Web 2.0
I have never heard of Web 1.0 or Web 2.0 before reading these articles. I never stopped to think of it like that. I always look for reviews or ratings before I make a significant purchase. An example of this is when I shop at my favorite stores Academy and Best Buy. I always read the reviews by other customers.
As I read the information stated from edtechtimes.com, it is incredible to see how far we have come with technology and how the internet is used for education. For me personally, I am thankful because it is allowing me to further my education while maintaining my career position as a teacher and coach. Seven years ago I had the dream and goal of attaining my graduate degree. I was accepted to a traditional Kinesiology program at a university. I thought I had to find another job without coaching to do this. I searched every year for a position, but to no avail. With the online program at Fresno Pacific, it is giving me a chance to pursue my goals. From the information stated, many people are benefitting from internet education as well. I did not realize that the University of Phoenix had more than 500,000 student enrollments. That is unbelievable!
In the edtechtimes.com information, it states how “higher education is no longer just for the elite “ and the idea of “no child left behind “ could become a reality in the future with the continued growth of internet learning. As I stated I am thankful for my opportunity to further my education as an adult. However, I do believe children need the “human” aspect in their traditional learning environment, especially in their developmental years in elementary and junior high.
