2. ** Using YouTube, Video Mashups and Web 2.0 Possibilities **
 * You’ve heard the hype – BLOGS, WIKI’s, PODCASTS, SOCIAL SOFTWARE, RSS, now come and explore the educational possibilities.

E-learning as we know it has been around for ten years or so. During that time, it has emerged from being a radical idea—the effectiveness of which was yet to be proven—to something that is widely regarded as mainstream. It's the core to numerous business plans and a service offered by most schools, colleges and universities.

But now, e-learning is evolving along with the World Wide Web as a whole. It's changing based on the impact of new technology and socially structured features loosely described as Web 2.0. The key question here for this workshop is - How can the Web 2.0 tools be used effectively in teaching and learning in education? ||
