Web 2.0 Learning Opportunity – My Personal
Experience
It is when you get acquainted with tools like web
2.0 that you realize how much time you’ve been wasted and how far your work can
be done faster and in a professional manner. The primary term that highlighted
my attention was its definition itself. It was illustrated that it is a second
generation tool which compromises of web development and web design, which
facilitates communication, information sharing and networking. It can also be
used on any website or blogs, and can be read on computers and mobile phones.
Since three
days I have come across terms concerning Web 2.0 tools namely the Google
search, Google mail, RSS feeds, Google Docs/ Drive, Google Reader, Wikis, PB
works, wikieducator, VoIP, Google chat and blogging. Although I was already
acquainted to Google search there are various new things I have learnt. It has
made my search easy and straight to my topic while using commands, and it also
reduces the number of possible data referring to my search. While using RSS feed this has facilitate my
work in a way because when you are in research you need many updated
information, it is not necessary to go to every website or blog of a person or
institution, the feeds come automatically to us in an orderly and standardized
format.
It has been an enriching experience, where I can
apply the knowledge acquired about Web 2.0 tools to my daily work and other
activities in my field. During these sessions the trainees were very eager to
learn more about web 2.0, and the trainers were very supportive. They
professionally deliver this training, and make our tasks and learning process
as easy as possible.
