Where does Web 20 fit
Uploaded by loots1964 on Oct 21 2009
Originally I planned on having kids tell me about how they used Web 20 technologies in
school but when I saw their reaction to my question that they clearly had no idea what a
Web 20 was - by name at least I realized I had stumbled onto a fascinating little bit of
information Web 20 is so innate to digital natives that they can‟t even identify it by name
3
What is web 20 then
The definitions abound
Web 20 = the web as platform
Web 20 = the underlying
philosophy of relinquishing control
Web 20 = glocalization (ldquomaking
global information available to local
social contexts and giving people the
flexibility to find organize share
and create information in a locally
meaningful fashion that is globally
accessiblerdquo)
4
More of what is web 20
Web 20 = an attitude not a
technology
Web 20 = when data interface and
metadata no longer need to go hand
in hand
Web 20 = action-at-a-distance
interactions and ad hoc integration
Web 20 = power and control via
APIs
Web 20 = giving up control and
setting the data free
5
Itrsquos all of that and more
Web 20 is social it‟s open (or at least
it should be) it‟s letting go of control
over your data it‟s mixing the global
with the local Web 20 is about new
interfaces - new ways of searching and
accessing Web content And last but
not least Web 20 is a platform - and
not just for developers to create web
applications like Gmail and Flickr The
Web is a platform to build on for
educators media politics community
for virtually everyone in fact

What about wikis
What is a wiki
A wiki is a website where every
page can be edited in a web browser
by whomever happens to be reading
it Its so terrifically easy for people
to jump in and revise pages that
wikis are becoming known as the
tool of choice for large multiple-
participant projects

Does it have anything to do with Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a wiki
The name ldquoWikipediardquo is a portmanteau
(a combination of portions of two words
and their meanings) of the words wiki (a
type of collaborative Web site) and
encyclopedia
Wikipedia is written collaboratively by
volunteers from all around the world
anyone can edit it
bull WikipediaAbout see also

32
Be careful though
Wikipedia is just one example of a wiki
but not all wikis are Wikipedia or even like
Wikipedia
Wikis can cover all sorts of content
Wikis can be much more private than
Wikipedia (or much more open depending on
how security is handled)

What about social networking
Social networking is the grouping of

subdivision if you will Although social
networking is possible in person especially
in schools or in the workplace it is most
popular online
Social networking websites function like an
online community of internet users

Social Networking explained38
What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge

What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge

potential for expanding learning

Is Web 20 dead or was it never alive in the first place
Where does Web 20 fit
Uploaded by loots1964 on Oct 21 2009
Originally I planned on having kids tell me about how they used Web 20 technologies in
school but when I saw their reaction to my question that they clearly had no idea what a
Web 20 was - by name at least I realized I had stumbled onto a fascinating little bit of
information Web 20 is so innate to digital natives that they can‟t even identify it by name
3
What is web 20 then
The definitions abound
Web 20 = the web as platform
Web 20 = the underlying
philosophy of relinquishing control
Web 20 = glocalization (ldquomaking
global information available to local
social contexts and giving people the
flexibility to find organize share
and create information in a locally
meaningful fashion that is globally
accessiblerdquo)
4
More of what is web 20
Web 20 = an attitude not a
technology
Web 20 = when data interface and
metadata no longer need to go hand
in hand
Web 20 = action-at-a-distance
interactions and ad hoc integration
Web 20 = power and control via
APIs
Web 20 = giving up control and
setting the data free
5
Itrsquos all of that and more
Web 20 is social it‟s open (or at least
it should be) it‟s letting go of control
over your data it‟s mixing the global
with the local Web 20 is about new
interfaces - new ways of searching and
accessing Web content And last but
not least Web 20 is a platform - and
not just for developers to create web
applications like Gmail and Flickr The
Web is a platform to build on for
educators media politics community
for virtually everyone in fact

What about wikis
What is a wiki
A wiki is a website where every
page can be edited in a web browser
by whomever happens to be reading
it Its so terrifically easy for people
to jump in and revise pages that
wikis are becoming known as the
tool of choice for large multiple-
participant projects

Does it have anything to do with Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a wiki
The name ldquoWikipediardquo is a portmanteau
(a combination of portions of two words
and their meanings) of the words wiki (a
type of collaborative Web site) and
encyclopedia
Wikipedia is written collaboratively by
volunteers from all around the world
anyone can edit it
bull WikipediaAbout see also

32
Be careful though
Wikipedia is just one example of a wiki
but not all wikis are Wikipedia or even like
Wikipedia
Wikis can cover all sorts of content
Wikis can be much more private than
Wikipedia (or much more open depending on
how security is handled)

construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the

can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies
51
Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning
New Hampshire kindergarten teacher Maria Knee
a pioneer in using Web 20 tools with young
learners points out that keeping powerful tools out
of students‟ reach during the school day doesnt
prepare them for life Our kids are going to be
using these tools and sites anyway she argues

What about wikis
What is a wiki
A wiki is a website where every
page can be edited in a web browser
by whomever happens to be reading
it Its so terrifically easy for people
to jump in and revise pages that
wikis are becoming known as the
tool of choice for large multiple-
participant projects

Does it have anything to do with Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a wiki
The name ldquoWikipediardquo is a portmanteau
(a combination of portions of two words
and their meanings) of the words wiki (a
type of collaborative Web site) and
encyclopedia
Wikipedia is written collaboratively by
volunteers from all around the world
anyone can edit it
bull WikipediaAbout see also

32
Be careful though
Wikipedia is just one example of a wiki
but not all wikis are Wikipedia or even like
Wikipedia
Wikis can cover all sorts of content
Wikis can be much more private than
Wikipedia (or much more open depending on
how security is handled)

Social networking is the grouping of

online community of internet users

Social Networking explained38
What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

What about social networking
Social networking is the grouping of
individuals into specific groups like small
rural communities or a neighborhood
subdivision if you will Although social
networking is possible in person especially
in schools or in the workplace it is most
popular online
Social networking websites function like an
online community of internet users

Social Networking explained38
What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies
51
Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning

Can blogging be ldquosaferdquo
Safe blogs becoming a part of schoolThe fear of encouraging social networking and
leaving the door open for unsavory individuals to
see what students are doing online has caused most
districts to avoid the tool said David Warlick a
North Carolina public speaker and author whos
working on the second edition of ldquoClassroom
Blogging A Teachers Guide to the Blogosphererdquo
But new educational software such as Virtual
Office or Moodle which the Muskego-Norway
School District has implemented this year protects
students by letting them publish their writing
within a secure server where teachers can monitor

What about wikis
What is a wiki
A wiki is a website where every
page can be edited in a web browser
by whomever happens to be reading
it Its so terrifically easy for people
to jump in and revise pages that
wikis are becoming known as the
tool of choice for large multiple-
participant projects

Does it have anything to do with Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a wiki
The name ldquoWikipediardquo is a portmanteau
(a combination of portions of two words
and their meanings) of the words wiki (a
type of collaborative Web site) and
encyclopedia
Wikipedia is written collaboratively by
volunteers from all around the world
anyone can edit it
bull WikipediaAbout see also

32
Be careful though
Wikipedia is just one example of a wiki
but not all wikis are Wikipedia or even like
Wikipedia
Wikis can cover all sorts of content
Wikis can be much more private than
Wikipedia (or much more open depending on
how security is handled)

What about social networking
Social networking is the grouping of
individuals into specific groups like small

networking is possible in person especially
in schools or in the workplace it is most
popular online
Social networking websites function like an
online community of internet users

Social Networking explained38
What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies
51
Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning

of students‟ reach during the school day doesnt
prepare them for life Our kids are going to be
using these tools and sites anyway she argues

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the

can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge

What about wikis
What is a wiki
A wiki is a website where every

by whomever happens to be reading
it Its so terrifically easy for people

Does it have anything to do with Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a wiki
The name ldquoWikipediardquo is a portmanteau

Be careful though
Wikipedia is just one example of a wiki
but not all wikis are Wikipedia or even like

how security is handled)

What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies
51
Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning
New Hampshire kindergarten teacher Maria Knee
a pioneer in using Web 20 tools with young
learners points out that keeping powerful tools out
of students‟ reach during the school day doesnt
prepare them for life Our kids are going to be
using these tools and sites anyway she argues

What about wikis
What is a wiki
A wiki is a website where every
page can be edited in a web browser
by whomever happens to be reading
it Its so terrifically easy for people
to jump in and revise pages that
wikis are becoming known as the
tool of choice for large multiple-

Does it have anything to do with Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a wiki
The name ldquoWikipediardquo is a portmanteau
(a combination of portions of two words
and their meanings) of the words wiki (a
type of collaborative Web site) and
encyclopedia
Wikipedia is written collaboratively by
volunteers from all around the world
anyone can edit it
bull WikipediaAbout see also
History of Wikipedia
32
Be careful though
Wikipedia is just one example of a wiki
but not all wikis are Wikipedia or even like
Wikipedia
Wikis can cover all sorts of content
Wikis can be much more private than
Wikipedia (or much more open depending on
how security is handled)

What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies
51
Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning
New Hampshire kindergarten teacher Maria Knee
a pioneer in using Web 20 tools with young
learners points out that keeping powerful tools out
of students‟ reach during the school day doesnt
prepare them for life Our kids are going to be
using these tools and sites anyway she argues

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning

of students‟ reach during the school day doesnt
prepare them for life Our kids are going to be

Can blogging be ldquosaferdquo
Safe blogs becoming a part of schoolThe fear of encouraging social networking and

What about wikis
What is a wiki
A wiki is a website where every
page can be edited in a web browser
by whomever happens to be reading
it Its so terrifically easy for people
to jump in and revise pages that
wikis are becoming known as the
tool of choice for large multiple-

Does it have anything to do with Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a wiki
The name ldquoWikipediardquo is a portmanteau
(a combination of portions of two words
and their meanings) of the words wiki (a
type of collaborative Web site) and
encyclopedia
Wikipedia is written collaboratively by
volunteers from all around the world
anyone can edit it

32
Be careful though
Wikipedia is just one example of a wiki
but not all wikis are Wikipedia or even like
Wikipedia
Wikis can cover all sorts of content
Wikis can be much more private than
Wikipedia (or much more open depending on
how security is handled)

Social networking is the grouping of

What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

Find a good balance though
You can be too restrictiveContent filters and firewalls are great for keeping
kids away from pornography as required by the
Children‟s Internet Protection Act (download the
PDF) or preventing them from updating their
Facebook status during class But the same filters
can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning

of students‟ reach during the school day doesnt
prepare them for life Our kids are going to be

What about wikis
What is a wiki
A wiki is a website where every
page can be edited in a web browser
by whomever happens to be reading
it Its so terrifically easy for people
to jump in and revise pages that
wikis are becoming known as the
tool of choice for large multiple-
participant projects

Does it have anything to do with Wikipedia
Wikipedia is a wiki
The name ldquoWikipediardquo is a portmanteau
(a combination of portions of two words
and their meanings) of the words wiki (a
type of collaborative Web site) and
encyclopedia
Wikipedia is written collaboratively by
volunteers from all around the world
anyone can edit it

32
Be careful though
Wikipedia is just one example of a wiki
but not all wikis are Wikipedia or even like
Wikipedia
Wikis can cover all sorts of content
Wikis can be much more private than
Wikipedia (or much more open depending on
how security is handled)

What about social networking
Social networking is the grouping of
individuals into specific groups like small

networking is possible in person especially
in schools or in the workplace it is most
popular online
Social networking websites function like an
online community of internet users

What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Is Web 20 getting old already
Web 20 Is Over
All Hail the Age of Mobile
On April 9 2012 Web 20 lost
its mantle as the most important
Internet paradigm We are now

What about social networking
Social networking is the grouping of
individuals into specific groups like small
rural communities or a neighborhood
subdivision if you will Although social
networking is possible in person especially
in schools or in the workplace it is most
popular online
Social networking websites function like an
online community of internet users

Social Networking explained38
What exactly is it
Definition
We define social network sites as web-
based services that allow individuals to (1)
construct a public or semi-public profile
within a bounded system (2) articulate a
list of other users with whom they share a
connection and (3) view and traverse
their list of connections and those made by
others within the system

Web 20 and safety issues
Help Kids Socialize Safely Online Help your kids understand what information should
be private
Use privacy settings to restrict who can access and
post on your childs website
Explain that kids should post only information that
you mdash and they mdash are comfortable with others seeing
Remind your kids that once they post information
online they cant take it back
Know how your kids are getting online
Talk to your kids about bullying
Talk to your kids about avoiding sex talk online
Tell your kids to trust their gut if they have suspicions
Read sites‟ privacy policies

can stop teachers from accessing cutting-edge
widgets and digital materials that have enormous
potential for expanding learning
