We will be focusing on the new National Curriculum and how web 2.0 technologies can be best utilised to support teachers, students and parents. Our focus is to identify the web 2.0 technologies that can enhance learning in the 21st century for students in K-12, to become creative, independent, innovative and resourceful learners, ready to take their place in the world of the 21st century.

1.What is the role of the educator, student and parent in the twenty-first century? 2.How are educators utilising these technologies in teaching and learning to engage students and promote learning? 3.Do students know how to stay safe online? How can they be taught these necessary skills?

Group Charter
Our group charter has been based on the thoughts and concerns of each of the individual members. The idea that working in a group of highly qualified and talented eduactional professionals, would enable us to pool our extensive knowledge and build on the valuable contributuins put forward by each member. Each team member would have the ability to listen, negotiate and contribute towards the learn2 wikispace with honest, caring and constructive feedback being central to our learning community achieving its goals. Through the collaborative efforts of the team, the project will remain focused allowing all members the opportunity to comment on the development of our e-learning community.

Group Focus
This group of educators came together with a focus on the use of Web2.0 technology and their application in education. Whilst there are many areas where computer technology can be utilised in the education process, the group decided on narrowing down the area of education to the new National English curriculum and how Web2.0 technology could be used to assist in the delivery of educational material, and to provide valuable information to all stakeholders; teachers, parents and students within this subject area.
