The World Wide Web provides the opportunity for anyone with an internet connection to share information with a vast global audience - previously the domain of mega-rich media moguls!
While the promise of the Internet has always been access to global publishing for everyone, the technology to make this a reality has always been a bit of a hurdle.
While the browsing and consuming of information on the web has always been relatively simple (and most often the focus of school programs), the creating and publishing of information on the web has been more complicated.
Some new on-line applications are now making the publishing of information on the web much more accessible. These applications provide some exciting new opportunities for those of us in the education sector.
Web 2.0 (aka the Read/Write Web), in combination with increasing access to broadband technology, has the potential to revolutionise the way we publish collaborative information and resources.
These pages discuss some options available to educators to engage in web publishing opportunities for both themselves, their students and their school communities.
The options you choose depend largely on the purpose of your work, and the skills that you have available.
- Follow the links at the top of this page to explore the options:
- Traditional Web

Read/Write Web
Aka Web 2.0, edit your web sites using only a web browser, on any computer;
