This document discusses the shift from the traditional view of knowledge as something passed from teachers to students, to a more collaborative view of knowledge creation. It outlines several Web 2.0 tools that support collaboration, including social networks, blogs, wikis, social bookmarking, social tagging, and podcasting. Examples of educational uses of these tools are provided, such as using blogs for student reflections or assignment submissions, wikis for group projects, and podcasts for sharing lecture recordings. Key trends in higher education adoption of these technologies over the next 5 years are also highlighted.
