Guest presenter - Guest presenter - Sean Fitzgerald,
“Web 2.0 technologies and their impact on education, teaching and learning”

Last Friday Sean Fitzgerald presented to the team on the web2.0/networked learning and it’s impact on teaching and learning.

He outlined the defining characteristics of what has come to be know as web2.0 and demonstrated how it is changing the way people use the Web and altering social institutions.

He argued that a cultural shift may be required within educational institutions like DET/TAFE in order to adapt to the changes brought about by Web 2.0 technologies.
