Edu2.0 is a free web-based education site with comprehensive features for teachers, students and parents. Anyone can teach and/or learn using the system, whether it's at school, at home, or on the move. This is similar to cougar courses and moodle, but it seems more user friendly and can be used in preschool, elementary, middle and high schools (public or private), and provides a comprehensive learning management system for administrators, teachers, students and parents. You can even network schools into a single district to facilitate the sharing of classes and resources! This site can be accessed by not only teachers, but kids, parents and any other people who want to be involved! It is also Free!! Homeschooling and teacher training are also possible, as this site can be used in and outside of the classroom. I think being able to access your work from school at home is extremely important because it helps kids; adults and teachers become more technologically savvy. I like how there is a class catalog, news and calendar to keep everyone updated. I think this will benefit me most because it will keep me on task and give me a way to communicate with my students parents and my peers.
