Web 2.00 workshop
Wednesday 04 April 2012
University of Manchester
On Wednesday 4th April 2012, The University of Manchester, in conjunction with the Higher Education Academy, is holding a workshop that focuses on using web 2.0 in teaching and learning, within the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines.
This workshop uses the term 'social media' to refer to internet services where the online content is generated by the users of the service. Although there are other synonymous terms for such services (web 2.0, participatory media, etc), for consistency this session will use the terms social media (to describe the phenomenon) or social tools (to describe the technologies).
Examples of the social tools which may be covered include:
- Social Networking: Facebook and beyond
- Blogs
- Wikis
- Document sharing
- Presentation tools
- File sharing
- Conferencing
