Photocritic is an excellent example of using web 2.0 technologies in education. It solves a real problem and begins with educational goals. After the session, I talked wtih a faculty member who mentioned that a similar tool could be used in Interior Design programs.

I also think it would be useful in teacher education. Students are oftentimes asked to videotape themselves presenting a lesson and receive feedback. Using something like Wordpress combined with YouTube could move that activity into the online realm which, as this presentation shows, can add much value to the peer critiquing process. Students will be more likely to think about and develop more sophisticated critiques. Do you find this valuable?
