Learning
2.0
I think new technology is:
1. Really cool. I try out as much as I can, and love every minute of it.
2. Sometimes useful for learning, but I wait to try it until it’s proven.
3. A real pain. I try to avoid wasting my time with it as much as possible.
“New technology” means…
1. Blog readers, Wikis, Social Bookmarking
2. Twitter, Social Networks, Mobile apps
3. Simulations, Augmented Reality, Virtual environments
