__** Why Web 2.0, Open Source and Open Content Matter so Much **__ Three Internet driven cultural shifts that will have profound impacts on education · How we find, create, and consume information · How we get things done · How we connect with others

Three broad solutions · To provide ubiquitous computing, we must start using Linux · We must start teaching collaborative tools, including Web 2.0, social networking, and open source software · We must start providing real-world, creation-centered, authentic-audience environments for students.

· MITOpenCourseware - Massachusetts Institution of Technology that offers free online course materials. · Creative Commons - increases sharing and improves collaboration with creative ideas worldwide. · Apache – open source for hosting websites (70% share of servers). · Classroom 2.0 - social network for Web 2.0 tools. · The Future of Education - discussion community for teachers to share their ideas. · K12OpenSource - collaborative effort of organizing open source resources.
