Acceptable Use and Web 2.0
October 27, 2007 by warrick
I’ve been trying to look at as many presentations as I can from the K12 Online Conference currently underway, and have been enjoying them a lot. I posted earlier about the New Imagery Conference I attended earlier this month, but this online conference also has some great presentations, more focused on technology generally. Each presentation from the K12 Online Conference has a .mp3 presentation, supporting links, a biog page and sometimes even a slide show with the voice, such as this one (powered by voicethread)
One such presentation, that I enjoyed a lot was by Joseph Bires, called Acceptable Use and the Web 2.0. He tackles some of the issue around identity, acceptable use, safety and security but always with the picture of learning in mind. He has some tips for promoting web 2.0 effectively and safely in schools. They are:
- Create sandboxes of success
- Manage the chaos
- Refine the policies
- Invest in the infrastructure
- Support the innovators: feed the hungry
- Accept that some close the door (on web 2.0)
It’s at the conference site here, or you can link to the enhanced slideshow version directly HERE
