Today there are thousands of exciting learning tools to explore, but sadly most teachers do not have the time to explore all, or figure out which ones to use. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This presentation and site provides all the resources shared during the '<i><b>Social Media &amp; Web 2.0 for Learning' </b></i>workshop (I facilitate), which focuses on several of the most essential learning tools that we can use to facilitate learning and build an effective personal learning environment and network. </div><br /><b>Site (Workshop) Contents</b><br /><ul><li><b><a href="http://socialweblearning.blogspot.com/p/rss-readers.html">RSS and Curation</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://socialweblearning.blogspot.com/p/blogging.html">Blogging</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://socialweblearning.blogspot.com/p/twitter.html">Twitter</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://socialweblearning.blogspot.com/p/facebook.html">Facebook</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://socialweblearning.blogspot.com/p/wikis.html">Wikis</a></b></li><li><b><a href="http://socialweblearning.blogspot.com/p/oerocw.html">OER/OCW</a></b> <b><br /></b></li><li><b><a href="http://socialweblearning.blogspot.com/p/multimedia.html">Other Tools</a></b></li></ul><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmASePOlseRYLZX6ojYRr_G-lQ_iFHQ6aNJTyKyX_f2BKHBjZbdcy-tZgDC85VVf33zsLyqeTWkyRb07kkN0ypWBQ4mVKW2ClofVACff-BOT6wX6asuFugvhdcoZSbjLyaG9l7oobg0Sy4/s1600/under+construction.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size:large;"><b>WORKSHOP?</b></span> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Although, the presentation slides are pretty much done, the website will be under construction for the next few weeks. I will first be facilitating this workshop online (1/2 day) to a <a href="http://elc.edu.sa/portal/modules/training/eliws2.php?lang=en&cid=270">group in Saudi Arabia</a> next week (20th February, one of the pre-workshops for the <a href="http://eli.elc.edu.sa/2011/en">2nd International Conference - E-Learning &amp; Distance Learning, Riyadh</a>), and then again I will be facilitating a similar workshop (face-to-face) in March at the <a href="http://amea2011.imu.edu.my/workshop.asp">AMEA 2011 Conference</a> (another pre-workshop), and after that who knows where (if anywhere!)... </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">So, to make it a bit more interesting this time, I have decided to share the workshop (presentation slides, resources and site) with all of you, and then <i style="color: rgb(153, 0, 0);"><b>hopefully get some constructive feedback</b></i>, so that I can improve further.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Still early days, but with a bit of work this workshop could evolve into something quite special, which could benefit people beyond those just participating. Isn't that what Social Media and Web 2.0 is all about?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: rgb(56, 118, 29); text-align: center;"><i><b>Reaching out and making a positive difference beyond the brick walls of a class, hall and building?</b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">What do you think?</div></div>ZaidLearnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17621097605357272748noreply@blogger.com1
