She said that she will try and upload them by the end of today. So we will re-upload this PowerPoint with the recordings attached. Analysis of the results: • Collaborating and social networking sites, are the most developed and used by a large proportion of people today. • Well-known sites used by many today in the category ‘Collaborating and Social networking’ include Facebook and twitter. As proved in our survey graphs and media, many people have chosen these sites as to one of the main reasons why, they are interested in Web2.0 • Web2.0 is of course also used for other sources such as for educational purposes which refers to one of the main reasons Aatna and I are highly dependent on it. What are the advantages of the elements that Web 2.0 covers? • The advantages and benefits are, to be connected to share ideas. People get to give their ideas, new ideas. • You can use Web2.0 to get in touch family around the world. • They relate to so many sources, and can assist those who are interested in a variety of things. Basically many different technologies in the teachinglearning activities. • It has made information easier to share on the web by introducing ‘online communities. What are the disadvantages of the elements that Web 2.0 covers? • It may not mention the creators name or information, and there might be hackers who have changed some information. • Many people depend on Web2.0 for educational purposes and end up with the wrong information as they weren’t secure of the source they used. This refers to our first point. Is there a guarantee that Web 2.0 gives you the right information? • This depends on the reliability of the source – who created the site, when it was last updated, whether or not it is sponsored and if so by who etc. • Albeit the source may be reliable as when people create a website that tell us everything, they research, work on it and interview people who have investigated on the subject. However not always as anyone can hack your website and change the information which might turn out as maybe a virus or just incorrect information .
