 We, as teachers, use in our classrooms different methods and approaches. We should create a positive atmosphere for our students to express themselves easily and to feel themselves safe. At this point Web 2.0 Tools help us to have positive atmosphere for both us and our students. We can use Web 2.0 Tools in our classes to evaluate, create and have fun. Web 2.0 tools provide us a great opportunity to make our lessons unforgettable for the students and ,of course, for us too.
