B. THE WEB 2.0 SPECTRUM
** Web 1.0 to Web 2.0 ** The original Web 1.0 was one way. Basically, the user was just a consumer of information. Think of it as the analog world of television and radio. The consumer would sit and get... and possibly be entertained. Just like television went to full color and HD, so did the web! Enter Web 2.0. It is multi-directional! It is more than a one way superhighway! Everyone is a consumer and everyone is a producer. The analog days of the one way street are over. Web 2.0 allows us all to be producers. Best of all, it provides plenty of awesome color!

Welcome to the Web 2.0 collection... tools that will allow students to travel to the arena of higher level thinking as they travel up Bloom's Taxonomy. Remember that Bloom's has been changed into an action based machine:
