I have personally and academically evolved my thoughts regarding the use of not only computers but specifically Web 2.0 tools in the class.
The Good
Students are already using the web in ways that are not academic (as evidenced in a section of college comp that I'm teaching this semester). Use of these tools when used in a school setting, through the lens of curriculum and pedagogy, Web 2.0 tools I could see as being an extremely effective tool of the everyday classroom.
The Bad
Teachers not being 'up to date' with the new tech tools, schools, principals, and administrations not being open to the use of these tools and these web based (typically free) tools being blocked from the schools network.
The Ugly
Fears of being the only teacher who wants to use these tech tools in a school and not being supported by co-teachers and administrations.
