Thing #5, 2.0 Means it's better?
School 2.0 is using technology in the classroom. I think this would be
very useful in teaching a foreign language. Some students will never get
to physically travel to the countries we will study about so I think
that bringing the country to the student virtually will be of a big
benefit. The students will be able to learn about culture, see pictures
of historical sites and learn the history of a place. They will be able
to hear the music of the country. Using the internet would also enable
us to communicate with people from the countries we learn about. The
students could have pen pals and practice using the target language or
we could have a podcast with students in other countries using the
language we are learning. I think this would open up learning for people
around the world to learn from each other. I think eventually more
things will be done using technology. The students of today grow up
using these things, why not give them more tools they can use.
