Thing #5

School 2.0 to me means that the terms education and technology are used hand and hand. Kids love to use technology and because of this they are incorporating it more and more in education. This does have a lot of advantages, but also some disadvantages. After using some of the links on Web 2.0 I am uneasy about the effects on education that it could have. Don't get me wrong I think technology is great but there has to be a limit. I think that blogs, D2L, iPads, and Smartboards are great resources for education. But looking into the future it almost seems that technology will soon "take-over" the teachers job. So, even though there are advantages to the use of technology in the school, I think we have to be careful.
