Web 2.0 Tools are Great for Juniors
Web 2.0 tools have been designed to be very easy to use, which makes them perfect for juniors. They also make our kids' work accessible to that wide audience of interested people - parents, grand parents, aunts and uncles, family friends and other junior class children. So have a go today. You can check out more of the background to this in my ULearn08 presentation in the relevant tab of this wiki.

So to get started have a browse and play in these links
