Hello everyone,
This is my version of mind mapping designed on a new tool I discovered recently while exploring various web 3.0 tools for my ASSIST program at work.
I wanted to demonstrate how modern day online instructors can teach online by presenting this project on a dynamic or what I call web 3.0 version of online learning tools. I have been an advocate for use of new technologies in all learning environment and am quick to demonstrate to those skeptics and the “ resistance” population the benefits of Universal Design Language (UDL) in online classrooms and hybrid classes. Noted, the demonstration is a comparison between Static (2-D text, documents, and image) and Dynamic (3-D documents, text, and image amplified to a new level of engagement). Enjoy and share your feedback about the concept of teaching dynamic style. Also worth noting, while web 3.0 is just getting starting in today’s educational population, web 4.0 is the latest emergent technology. Web 4.0 focuses on virtual world, augmentation, holographics, and avatar engagement to others in Radio Frequency Identification tag (RFID), semantic, Electronic Learning (E-Learning).

Lynda,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I am really liking the spicy node look. Very nice! I am going to have to try that out so I can see how easy/user-friendly it is.
As for your discussion of 3.0 and 4.0 - I do have a question. I am reading a lot of differing discussions on what 3.0 and 4.0 really are. For example, I have seen virtual worlds classified as 3.0 tools. How would you explain the difference between 3.0 and 4.0?

Christine,
DeleteGreat question and I hope my explaination will help process the difference between web 3.0 and 4.0.
Lets review the web by exploring what it did in the early days - web 1.0. The World Wide Web initially enabled people to connect globally with no geographical limitations, of course the limit would be you did not have Internet availability. Moving to web 2.0 people did more than connect they could shop and view vibrant web pages with better graphics. Now to the present people use web 3.0 in a more engaging manner meaning people can socially talk in real-time, see videos and each other through streaming videos, and the webpage seems to "pop-out" on the screen. In other words, hover your mouse over an image or word and more than likely it will give you a screen tip or more information about that item. Lastly, go into the near future and web 4.0 will be introduced as the intelligent web to which it will make better suggestion on what to view, search, and items you that are associated to your previous purchase or view.
A good example of advance technology like web 4.0 is by watching the movie Minority Report (2002) starring Tom Cruise. Too, a good example of web 3.0, which is commonly called the Semantic web is by watching this clip from Youtube by Manu Sporny, Digital Bazaar 2007: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGg8A2zfWKg
I hope this helps and best wishes on moving.

Hi Lynda,
ReplyDeleteDo you believe an individual's technology expertise determines if they rate a tool as static or dynamic?

Simone,
DeleteI do believe we are influence by what we experience in our world. Vygotsky (1978) mentions this in his theory on Constructivism and Zone of Proximal Development. Too, Hutchins (1995) describes how learning takes place through views of the environment that the person is immersed in at the present.
