- We as educators MUST begin to use these technologies ourselves so that we can teach the students and feel very comfortable with these teachings.
- We need to teach our students to become critical consumers of the information they are taking in from the read/write web. With over 80 billion web pages out there, they need to be able to discern good information from bad information.

Brilliant reflections! You've really hit the major points: Web 2.0 is a valuable educational tool, teachers must understand the technology and how it supports thinking and learning by using the tool themselves, and Web 2.0 is a perfect tool to use when asking students to be critical evaluators of information, to be good analyzers of content and how content connects to other ideas, and to develop good constructive feedback skills.
