Classroom 2.0 Reflection

Classroom 2.0 is a social networking site for teachers basically. It has the potential to be very helpful because you can post question, post answers, share wisdom and experience, or just browse around and get ideas. You have to create an account, but it's all free! These kind of resources make me think that teachers are quite possibly the most helpful toward each other people in the world. There are so many quality resources for teachers (like Classroom 2.0) that I feel even more strongly that my decision to become a teacher was the right one. These kind of resources also remind me that no matter how bad I think I have it, there is always someone I can turn to for advice or help. 

As I browsed through the website, I found that a lot of people were asking questions or asking for suggestions, and a lot of those people got answers. However, a lot of them didn't get answers. Although this website is a great resource to have, and it has hundreds of users, that doesn't necessarily guarantee that you'll get an answer or even any helpful information. So it has the potential to be helpful, but it may not be in all situations when you have a specific question you need answered. But if you are browsing through, just looking for ideas, I would say there is a 100% chance you will find something you can use. 

Overall, Classroom 2.0 was a great idea and is a great resource for teachers. It promotes cooperation with others in our field, and it reminds us that we are all fighting the same fight.
