6 The Social Web
For me, having the network at my fingertips is revolutionary. For many years art teachers sit alone with know one to ask questions, share ideas or lessons. The social web allows me to reach out and share, get new lessons, share student artwork, improve my lessons and trade artwork with other schools in other places. It is overwhelming just how many people are now online and how over the past 30 years it has changed.
I do worry if we are prepared for just how venerable we are on line and I am overwhelmed with all the security. It is wonderful being able to both communicate and see family from the United Kingdom to Japan. This is only possible through web, I have used face book and Skype to communicate and wonder how I missed so much in the past when I could not. I could see using Skype to communicate with other art classes.
