In the emerging era of the "read-write" web, students can not only research and collect information from existing web resources, but also collaborate and create new information on the web in a surprising number of ways. Web 2.0 is an umbrella term for many individual tools that have been created with web collaboration, sharing, and/or new information creation in mind. A multitude of free web 2.0 tools may be applied to a course in technology integration, with added social benefits for courses taught from a distance. Before redesigning courses to include web 2.0 assignments, instructors should take into consideration a few factors tied to privacy, ethics, longevity, and start-up procedures. This article discusses the redesign of a distance education graduate-level technology integration course taken by in-service teachers, highlighting the integration of new web 2.0 tools for learner content interactions and assignments. The course is directed at teachers working on a master's degree and a supplement to their existing teaching license that enables them to serve as a school Instructional Technology Specialist.
