Create new interactive participatory learning spaces using tools such as online classes gaming and simulations online tutors and virtual reality environments
Incorporate Web 20 tools into daily instruction especially those that develop collaborative or social-based learning and provide unique opportunities for students to be content developers
Expand digital resources in the classroom to add context and relevancy to learning experiences through new media tools
Get beyond the classroom walls and make learning truly experiential such as using high tech science instrumentation and creating podcasts with content experts
