Web 2.0 in the Classroom

What's Holding You Back?

If you are an educator, you may be apprehensive about using Web 2.0 in the classroom. The following addresses several common concerns and how BASCOM's school content filters and curriculum tools effectively integrate the Internet, your objectives and your students' educational experience.

My filter gets in the way.
Web 2.0 is collaborative content that's constantly changing, so using it in K-12 education while still maintaining security presents critical challenges. Traditional filters just can't adapt. To use Web 2.0 in the classroom, you need BASCOM's Global Chalkboard—a simple, low-cost, swap-and-go solution with flexible filtering.

My classroom won't be safe.

They manage the filter and delegate authority to educators to make content decisions. So, the IT Department can focus on security and put curriculum back into the hands of teachers—where it belongs.

My class will run wild.
With BASCOM's Global Chalkboard you have the classroom management tools needed to keep students focused for productive learning. Teachers can be empowered with the authority to direct students to the exact Web 2.0 content needed for a lesson.
