Web 5.0

What would that be like?

Last semester, my ethical/pedagogical class had the opportunity to skype with Craig Roland and it was awesome.

I really enjoyed his blog, but moreover, I support his mission to make the web and all of its useful instruments a valuable component within the art classroom.

I think that the web is a huge part of young people's lives and is accessible for most students. It could be used for a class blog, a social network, research, design components, skyping into other art classes from anywhere in the world, and so much more.

  2. good god. web 5.0?

    i agree that the web is an integral part of our students' lives, and it presents so many awesome opportunities for projects, work, etc., but it's just as fraught with pitflls and bad ideas, which is why it's so important to be judicious and thoughtful in our usage. never technology for technology's sake.
