Web 2.0 in a sense is using the internet to make user created content. Web 2.0 has brought up social media sites, wikis, blogs, etc. I think it is really great to an extent. I am sure you most people have heard the saying, "Too many cooks, spoil the broth." What I am trying to get at is Web 2.0 is great, but when thousands upon thousands of people creating their own blogs with no meaning or creating videos that just waste people's time it ruins the whole idea of making the internet into a better place.
When I think of School 2.0, I think of schools using existing technologies to improve the classroom. I think of ideas like turning papers online or having assignments online. On paper, these seem like a good idea, but I feel they can do some harm. Students might become more lazy when they are not involved with assignments in person. If schools do a "School 2.0" approach, they have to do it right or they have to go back to the drawing board.
