An E-Learning Web 2.0 Experience at the University

Abstract

This contribution focuses on an experience of e-learning Web 2.0 realized at the University of Milano-Bicocca (Milano, Italy) in the 2011-2012 Academic Year. In this experience the authors used Thinktag Smart, a new e-learning Web 2.0 platform, to train 137 students of the University of Milano-Bicocca. All participants had done e-learning before and had an Internet connection in their homes. At the end of the experience the authors evaluated the learning experience and the learning platform using an evaluative questionnaire given to the students who took part in the experience. After an introduction to Web 2.0 and e-learning 2.0, this paper will deal with this learning experience and its results.
