Title
Using Web 2.0 as a Motivating Theme for an IT Fluency Course
Abstract
Some of the challenges of an IT fluency course are to effectively engage students with diverse backgrounds and demonstrate the relevance of the subject matter. In this paper we describe our experience with a course that uses Web 2.0 as an underlying theme to motivate the students, most of whom are non-majors. Students chose applications that they used on a daily basis and conducted research under the instructor’s guidance to discover and then discuss IT fundamentals themselves. This approach was introduced as a pilot in spring 2009 semester and is a part of an ongoing study.
