To facilitate the research and design of my web 2.0 class website, I decided to interview an English professor at John Carroll. I talked to my English professor, Mr. Canfield. He is not very familiar with electronics and was not aware of what Web 2.0 applications were. I explained what Web 2.0 applications were and suggested some applications and he agreed that they would be helpful in a website for his class. My teacher thought that a website for the class was a great idea.

Some of the Web 2.0 applications Mr. Canfield thought would work best for his website, were most of the websites that dealt with the sharing of ideas and networking. One Web 2.0 app is edmodo.com, which helps communication on the website between the teacher, students and parents. My teacher also thought all of the students should use soshiku.com to help organize all of the work. Since Mr. Canfield teaches English here at John Carroll, he thought that wepapers.com would be very helpful for students to review each others papers. At wepapers.com, students upload their papers and revise each others papers. Unigo.com is another great Web 2.0 app that my teacher thought would be helpful because he is big into using videos and and articles. Unigo.com is a good website for easily uploading pictures, videos and articles for the students in the class to view. Notesake.com is great for taking notes because Mr. Canfiled thinks that classrooms will become 100% technological in a matter of no time!

A class website is a great idea for many high school and college professors. Many of these Web 2.0 applications will help make these class websites a success.
