This document summarizes Greg Esteves' presentation on using technology and web 2.0 tools to engage students in the classroom. It introduces several tools like Google Docs, screen casting, wikis, blogs, social bookmarking, Twitter, Glogster, SlideShare, Wordle and photo tools that teachers can use. It also discusses benefits of these tools for student collaboration, editing and quality of work. However, it notes risks like applications changing or not being accessible long-term. The top priority is choosing the right tool for the lesson. The teacher's skills remain most important for an effective learning experience.
