Web 2.0 redefines What, How and With Whom we Learn

Web 2.0 is easy to use but difficult to use "well"
* Effective use of Web 2.0 media requires fluency in their rhetoric.

* A good web 2.0 based teaching will need to help students understand difference between data and information.. understanding inconsistencies and inaccuracies...
* Thanks to Web 2.0 Epistemology of knowledge has changed.. How you get to knowledge has changed
