The Smackdown, 2009This is a featured page

...with educational connections, of course.


There are an ever growing number of great Web 2.0 technologies and services these days. Even with RSS subscriptions to TechCrunch, ReadWriteWeb, Feedmyapp, etc. it’s difficult to be aware of all the great stuff that’s out there. However, collectively we are familiar with a large number of useful resources. These kinds of technologies commonly have very low learning curves and can be described and understood in minutes.

We're going to take advantage of all the distributed knowledge in the IDT 7078 Learning Community and occasionally have gigantic sessions of speed demos (3 minute show and tells) and learn about some of the best resources out there. Let’s have a Web 2.0 Smackdown!

Are you unfamiliar with a Web 2.0 Smackdown? No worries, most people are. Let me explain…

Rules and Organization
  • Choose one of your favorite Web 2.0 tools or social technologies and be willing to quickly demo it for the group.
  • Provide a quick demonstration of the tool and share ways that it can be used with teaching and learning.
  • Each demo is allowed a maximum of 3 minutes. Finish in under the time limit or face the Smackdown!
  • Warning: This is fast and violent — Thus the term SMACKDOWN!!!! The goal is to involve as many people as possible and learn about as many new resources as possible.

Virtual Participants
Everyone is welcome to participate and present. Virtual members of our learning community can connect with us via Skype, Oovoo, etc. to present your favorite Web 2.0 tools and services.
