Web 2.0

How has the web 2.0 changed the ways leaders can share, teach and support teachers?

Very simply, the Web 2.0 has allowed teachers and leaders to connect over distances and in real time. It also allows leaders who might be presenting to a larger group to access the thinking in the room. Tools like the Google Drawing that I posted would easily facilitate a room full of staff sharing their ideas. Similarly, contributing tools and resources by responding to a google form or using something like Today'sMeet to accept questions during a presentation allows leaders to respond and gauge the audiences understanding, readiness and engagement in a matter or minutes. Modelling the use of these tools is key to motivating the audience members -if only just a small percentage -to try a similar tool in their own practice.

These tools are some of the 'must-haves' in the toolbelt of 21st Century Leaders and teachers. Check them out!!
What is your 'go-to' tool??
