Web 1.0 vs Web 2.0Web 1.0 =
1st generation of the Internet
The Read-Only Web (for most of us)
Example: if we didn’t have access to special knowledge (e.g., how to write html code) or special technology (e.g., servers), then we could only 'read' the content that other people had written and published on their websites.
Web 2.0 =
2nd generation of the Internet;
The Read-Write Web
We can read content and publish our own material on the web through services that make it easy for us
All about participation, collaboration, interactivity, communication, community-building, sharing, networking, creativity
Colin Lankshear & Michele Knobel (2006): “Shifts in the Web can effect Mindset”
WEB 1.0
The world is appropriately interpreted, understood and responded to in broadly physical industrial terms
Products as material artifacts
Tools for producing
Focus on individual intelligence
Expertise and authority ‘located’ in individuals and institutions
Space as enclosed and purpose specific
Social relations of ‘bookspace’; a stable ‘textual order’
WEB 2.0
The world cannot adequately be interpreted, understood and responded to in physical-industrial terms only
Products as enabling services
Tools for mediating and relating
Focus on collective intelligence
Expertise and authority are distributed and collective; hybrid experts
Space as open, continuous and fluid
Social relations of emerging ‘digital media space’; texts in change or flux.
Web 2.0
Web 2.0 materials encourage participation through online aspects…do not require
downloading of software, can just point and click, generally designed to be intuitive and
can be easily accessible

Language Learning
Some research (Maynard, 2002) shows that gender affects the way people think, behave
and learn.
• In FL learning, boys are more likely to drop languages.
• Most boys do not like to talk in the FL classroom because:
• Peer pressures/fear of negative feedback• Lack of self-confidence• Speaking the FL as not real work, • Prefer activities having concrete and practical
outcome, such as writing.• Pronouncing odd sounds in front of fellow
students
WEB 2.0 materials …
• Exploit potential to access language learning opportunities (even from home)
