Deriving a typology of Web 2.0 learning technologies
Abstract
This paper presents the methods and outcomes of a typological analysis of W eb 2.0 technologies. A comprehensive review incorporating over 2000 links led to identification of over 200 W eb 2.0 technologies that were suitable for learning and teaching purposes. The typological analysis involved development of relevant W eb 2.0 dimensions, grouping cases according to observed regularities and construction of types based on meaningful relationships. Characterisation of the constructed types incorporated descriptions based on attributes, examples of representative instances and typical pedagogical use cases. The analysis resulted in a typology of 37 types of W eb 2.0 technologies that were arranged into 14 clusters. Results of this study imply that educators typically have a narrow conception of W eb 2.0 technologies and there is a wide array of W eb 2.0 tools and approaches yet to be fully harnessed by learning designers and educational researchers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
