Short Video Explaining UDL:http://bit.ly/udlexplained
Web 2.0 provides a expansive learning world “in which the Web is seen as a two-way medium, where people are both readers and writers. The main catalyst for this is social software, allowing communication and collaboration between two or more people”. (O’Reilly, 2005)
Web 2.0 & New Possibilities for Education
Digital Natives, Digitally Engaged
• “Our students today are all "native speakers" of the digital language of computers, video games and the Internet.” (Prensky, 2001)
• When we use Web 2.0 tools we are engaging our students in what is often their language of preference.

Our Criteria• Does it provide all three principles of UDL?• Is it relatively easy to use?• Is it free?
o What is the registration process?• Appropriate Content? Is it better to have a student stumble
across something that’s “inappropriate” which can be used as a learning opportunity OR deny access completely so the student does not experience the “inappropriate” content? We let you decide.
