Day 3 January 26th, Classroom 2.0

Classroom 2.0 is an online digital classroom in which educators can communicate with their colleagues so as to share ideas, and collaborate on knowledge and techniques that they find work for them in their classrooms. For example Janine Ragan replied to Jane Leonardo's discussion 'Einstein Never Used Flash Cards' where she made the statement that children learn basic math principles by interacting with common objects on their own unsupervised. For me this was an innovative idea. This discussion is an example of ISTE Standard 1-a in that it promotes and supports creative and innovative thinking. Classroom 2.0 on a whole meets standard 1-d in that it is a model of collaborative knowledge that constructs and engages learning with colleagues in a virtual environment.
