ENHANCING LEARNING IN THE PRIMARY
SCHOOL THROUGH WEB 2.0

Liam Morgan

Web 2.0 tools are now common within K-6 schools, and there is an acknowledged need for more research to evaluate their effectiveness and their relationship to social-constructivist models of teaching and learning. A stronger research base is needed in order to inform teacher reflection on ways of deploying these tools and on their integration into teaching and learning frameworks. This paper contributes to this knowledge base through a detailed presentation of a research project undertaken in one Australian primary school with the aim of examining the effects of the use of two different Web 2.0 tools on the students’ learning.
