Reflection Essay
What does a Web 2.0 classroom look like?
I ensivision a Web 2.0 to look clean, organized. uncluttered, and students absorbed in their studies.
I imagine a quiet classroom, because our digital natives are eager to go online and work on their projects with their peer around the globe. The sound you hear is the sound of an improved mind (and fingers flying across the keyboard). The student code of conduct will be unlike today's because students are engaged in learning. Perhaps the problem will be when it's time to log-off!
What does it mean to create a technology-rich constructivist classroom?
In the process of creating a the new classroom, we will undergo growing pains. This happens every time there is a shift in how we live. But, I also belive that those growing pains will subside with mostly positive effects. Not only the classroom, but the entire physical structure of schools must undergo a complete makeover. No more 'warehous' type buildings. They will be pleasant to spend the day inside.
