Web 2.0 in Online Learning

The Web 2.0 revolution is providing a broad array of ever-changing technologies that enable and enhance online learning. Such technologies as Wikis, Podcasts, and Blogs utilize RSS to instantly update students with new information (such as the blog postings that are aggregated and updated each day in the right column of this blog). Google Documents and Zoho provide comprehensive, shared office suites of applications that rival those from Microsoft, but of course these are free and online.
