Leveraging Web 2.0 within a University Setting
The rise in networked social applications commonly referred to as
Web2.0 undeniably offers the potential to impact significantly on
current learning, teaching and management practices. But are current
institutional processes ready willing and able to embrace such
developments in spirit and in full? Michael Begg describes the
implementation of web 2.0 applications within the University of
Edinburgh’s College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine and unpacks
some of the local, institutional and cultural issues that surround
institutional uptake, local adoption and web 2.0 itself.
