  • From the Editor of Instructor/Electronic Learning in Your Classroom
    From the Editor of Instructor/Electronic Learning in Your Classroom Dear Technology Leader: What you’re holding in your hands is a tool for bringing together three of your school’s most pressing instructional priorities -- math, science, and technology -- in a way teachers are sure to love: well-crafted, classroom tested lesson plans. The eight lesson plans in this workbook use today’s most popular desktop applica- tions, such as Microsoft Office 97 (with Microsoft Word 97, Microsoft Excel 97, Microsoft PowerPoint 97 and Microsoft Access 97), Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0, Microsoft Publisher 97, and Microsoft Encarta 98 Deluxe Encyclopedia. These lessons include step-by-step instructions for using this software, which will add to the guid- ance teachers and students already get from the intuitive new Office Assistant and other Help functions Microsoft is known for. Developed by the editors of Instructor and Electronic Learning in Your Classroom in partnership with Microsoft, this workbook is meant to be used as a resource for staff development and as a working idea bank for classroom teachers. We hope that you and the teachers you work with find lots to be excited about within the covers of this book, and that it sparks a wave of technology-based lesson planning in your classrooms. Sincerely, Mickey Revenaugh Editor, Instructor/Electronic Learning in Your Classroom P. S. More teacher activity guides for Microsoft products are available online at: www.microsoft.com/education/k12/resource/lessons.htm Acknowledgements Microsoft would like to thank all of the educators from the United States and Australia who provided tested lesson plans for this book.

  • Riding the Waves of “Web 2.0” More Than a Buzzword, but Still Not Easily Defined
    Backgrounder Riding the Waves of “Web 2.0” More than a buzzword, but still not easily defined By Mary Madden and Susannah Fox Pew Internet Project October 5, 2006 “Web 2.0” has become a catch-all buzzword that people use to describe a wide range of online activities and applications, some of which the Pew Internet & American Life Project has been tracking for years. As researchers, we instinctively reach for our spreadsheets to see if there is evidence to inform the hype about any online trend. What follows is a short history of the phrase, along with some data to help frame the discussion. Let’s get a few things clear right off the bat: 1) Web 2.0 does not have anything to do with Internet2: 2) Web 2.0 is not a new and improved internet network operating on a separate backbone: and 3) It is OK if you’ve heard the term and nodded in recognition, without having the faintest idea of what it really means. When the term emerged in 2004 (coined by Dale Dougherty and popularized by O’Reilly Media and MediaLive International),1 it provided a useful, if imperfect, conceptual umbrella under which analysts, marketers and other stakeholders in the tech field could huddle the new generation of internet applications and businesses that were emerging to form the “participatory Web” as we know it today: Think blogs, wikis, social networking, etc.. And while O’Reilly and others have smartly outlined some of the defining characteristics of Web 2.0 applications —utilizing collective intelligence, providing network-enabled interactive services, giving users control over their own data—these traits do not always map neatly on to the technologies held up as examples.
