[senit] Copyright creativity and curriculum

Hi Sally, on Web 2.0, some time back Terry Freedman

hi Terry's web 2 booklet refers to flickr, podcasting,
vodcasting, wikis, blogs.
I know Sean is experimenting with podcasting and
blogs. How will students with SLD (mostly P1-8)
benefit from web 2.0? any practical examples to look
at?
thanks
david
