In this lesson, we learnt podcasting, how to make boardcasting on the web, this is a useful technique we can apply in the classroom, to make lesson interesting and to teach pupils using IT in the learning. We also learnt Mashup, we use the google map to indicated our school's location and put them in our blog. As a brief conclusion, we learnt many powerful Web2.0 tools and explore how these might be useful and apply these in our classroom.

Review about one of the Web 2.0 site

PODOBO

What's on your mind?

Podobo Offers Linear “Mind Mapping” for the Twitter Crowd

Podobo is a new community that lets you post your thoughts, and trail them through tag words.

Similar to Twitter, you can post a quick thought about anything that crosses your mind. All of your mini-posts will be accessible from your profile page. For the best effect, you should add as many relevant tag words as possible. From there, you can add your post, or someone else’s post, to the hoppr, where you can click on any tag word to see where it will lead you.

From the hoppr, you can also conduct other searches for individual tag words, on sites like Google, Flickr, Wikipedia, and YouTube. Other posts that have been tagged with the same keywords will show in order to give you a long list of related Podobo posts.

As far as Podobo’s network goes, there’s no way to send private messages, add friends, follow users or even posts. You can add posts to your favorite, or complain about them. While there are a handful of sites experimenting with this trail of thought, related items, and other forms of mind mapping, like TilePlex and MindMeister,

Podobo may be a bit too linear. Conducting a search in the hoppr will give you one result per tag word, which limit the amount of related items you’ll find. And as there’s little interaction you can have with these posts, a related tag word search yields little value with Podobo’s existing framework. Users should at least be able to respond to posts in order to form some circular activity throughout Podobo’s site.

Podobo is a website designed to allow you to express your random thoughts, linked by tags, to other thoughts by users all over the world. The characteristic of Podobo is about ideas and thoughts. It combines Mind mapping and Microblog. It is extensive use in the internet, besides chat room, writing diary, sharing ideas and feelings, we can also use it in finding out what people are thinking and, linking them together.

It is user friendly. Podobo can support Chinese and the outlook is attractive.

All User have their own pages, there's ours( http://www.podobo.com/)

We can also bookmarks other users post.

Reflection of 4th lesson

Nowadays, Facebook is very popular. We can use Facebook to keep contact and meet friends. Also, teachers and students can use it to communicate with each other. We can upload the photos, documents, useful links, games and sending presents on it.

In this lesson, beside Facebook, Mr Churchill has introduced some open source to us, like "moodle.com", "sakai", "oswd". They are very userfriendly. I think we can try to use them to create some sources that is related to teaching and learning in school.

Social bookmarking and Social Repositories

In this lesson, we have learnt how to use social bookmarking and social referencing. In time to time, we will bookmark some useful websites or webpages from the internet. When we are at home, we can add the hyperlinks as our “favorite” in the desktop computers. But, when we go outside, we can’t share or use the my “favorite” websites with my friends and students. Using social bookmarking (by http://deli.cio.us), we can add some of our favorite links and discply clout of our tag in our blog. We think that is very useful and convenient.

Then, we have tried to set up an account in Mindmeister. We have learnt how to set a mind map from this software. Then, we can use this technique or skills to prepare our lessons or works in school

What is Web 2.0? Someone said it is, "voice of crowds". It increased democratization and new citizenship. It provides compelling teaching and learning opportunities for users, inculding facilitate information sharing and collaboration among the users.

After disscussing the first reflection on Web 2.0, we think we can use it in teaching for promoting using in learning.

In this lesson we learn how to create community blog, post powerpoint and video on the blog. We think it is a good tool to use in education.
