Discussions
Fromtheresponsesthatwehavegained,wecansaythatpeoplethinkdifferently.Now,the
discussionbelowwillbrieflytellaboutwhywethinkthatsuchresponsesarereceived.
Forthefirstquestion,mostoftherespondentsknowthetruemeaningofWeb2.0probably
becausetheyhaveencountereditsomewhere.Inouropinion,theteachersinschoolhave
introducedaboutWeb2.0inschool.
Besides,thesecondquestiontellsushowtherespondentsdiscoveredaboutWeb2.0andmost
ofthemfoundoutfromfriendsorcolleagues.Webelievethatthisisbecause,therespondents
spentmoretimewiththeirfriendsmorethananythingandanyone.Surprisingly,thelowestis
frommedia,whereaswethoughttheywilllearnmorefrommediaandInternetsites.
Ontheotherhand,thenextquestionisaboutthefrequencyonhowmuchtheyuseWeb2.0
perweekandwefoundthatmajorityofthemusesitquitefrequentlywhichis5timesper
week.Thisisprobablybecausetheyspentmoretimeonthelaptopandgoingoverthe
Internet.Eventually,theywillgetexposedtoitbitbybit.
Moreover,thefourthquestionarangeofhowmuchtheythinkWeb2.0contributesin

methodhasbeenintroducedtothemsincetheywereinsecondaryschool.Theyprobably
haveseenthegoodresultintheirexamination,andusingWeb2.0probablyhashelpedthem
alot.

Forquestions5,mostoftherespondentsknowoftheexamplesofWeb2.0applicationsthat

Questions6statedabouttheconvenientofWeb2.0indailylearningprocessasmanyagreed
toit.Itisbecausetheycanlearnsomethingnewwiththoseapplicationsthatwereabletohelp
themintheirwork.
Itseemsthat,almostmostofthemhaverecommendedWeb2.0towardseveryonebecauseof
theirfamiliarityoftheapplications.ItisalsobecausethatWeb2.0canhelpthemdoingtheir
work.
ManyoftheopinionsregardingonhowtoimprovetheusageofWeb2.0ineducationare
that,theuseofWeb2.0shouldbeinstillinthelearningandteachingclasses.Itisprobably
becauseofthegoodresultsonusingtheapplicantsofWeb2.0thatboostuptheir
