This article examines the uses of Web 2.0 technologies in online education: blogs, wikis, social networking, social bookmarking, and virtual gaming environments. It also presents research on the pedagogical uses of Web 2.0 in online education and training; the theoretical underpinnings of this pedagogy; implications for colleges, universities, and organizations that adopt Web 2.0 technologies; and future trends and the systemic impact of Web 2.0. According to Thompson (2008, p. 22), “Web 2.0 offers educators new teaching and learning tools. Web 2.0 can change the way teachers interact with students and how students interact among themselves.”
