This week I explored some of the many, or I should say
hundreds if not thousands of videos there are on YouTube that can teach you all
about Twitter, Twitter Tools, Wiki's and Wikispaces, and the many videos (a lot
of them made by people like myself and my classmates) on what Web 2.0 is and
tools to use in educational settings. I have used YouTube for quite a
while and have already setup channels on different things I was interested in
(Travel, Music, Technology and others). I had never explored (before this
course) how to use Twitter and the many tools for Twitter. I also was not
aware of Wikispaces (although I have used Wikipedia for several
years). Although the existence of these videos should not surprise
me. Over the years, I have found a YouTube videos for just about
anything I was interested in. And I mean anything. I have used
YouTube for instructions on everything from how to install a hot water heater
in my home, to how to program my Wi-Fi connected home HVAC system.
But now that I have researched and found these new videos, I will be using
them to increase my knowledge of Web 2.0 and it plethora of tools and
information. BTW (By the Way), if and when I get to teach, it will
probably be technology in the home.
