[CALIBK12] [CSLA Research Update] Web 2.0 in school study

Survey shows barriers to Web 2.0 in schools
Teachers and students are largely driving the adoption of Web 2.0
technologies in schools, but human and technological barriers are
holding back the use of these as learning tools in many classrooms,
according to a new study underwritten by Lightspeed and NetTrekker. The
Web 2.0 technologies that are most widely used in schools today are
online communication tools for parents and students. Sixty-five percent
of those polled said at least 75 percent of their teachers use online
communications tools, and three-fourths of those polled said their
district has a plan for adopting or promoting the use of these
technologies.
