Web 2.0 technologies and social networking has a big impact on the changing roles of the student and teacher.

The Social Media and Web 2.0 tools workshop is designed to share with the participants the possibilities of Web 2.0 tools within education. Educators have a complete opportunity to learn practical implementation of these tools like twitter, wikis, blogs, Facebook and its importance in education. Although these tools were not designed specifically for e-learning but can be used to empower students and create exciting new learning opportunities for them.
