 * Laying the ePlanks for a Web 2.0 school**

At [|Hawkesdale p12 College], a small group of staff who love using web2.0 will research the processes for laying the e-planks in the virtual classroom floors. Our school is a small rural p12 school, educating 5 - 18 year old students. To enable this project to commence and continue, a wiki, ning and blog will all e-document its progress.

We are entering the conceptual age where the following are paramount:-
 * connectivity
 * creativity
 * communicate

Everyone's experience with Web 2.0 is personalised. Each journey has a different starting point a different path, and a different destination.
 * Web 2.0 is about CREATING content and DEVELOPING networks and communities - not just absorbing or using
 * project is not totally dominated by the technology - talk about the [|pedagogy]and how teaching can change from using Web 2.0 applications as well - each of the planks needs to have some sort of education focus rather than a technology focus
 * We're laying the planks for the SKILLS as well as the IDEAS and REASONS to use them

Two things to aim to improve - deeper thinking and creativity.
