There are many Web 2.0 tools available for teachers to use their classrooms. This large selection leads to the dilemma of which web tools to use for teaching and learning. Another issue is the lack of time teachers have to thoroughly research strategies and advantages for a web tool. This time constraint often leads to misinformation, confusion, and frustration.

However, a good window of opportunity to explore Web 2.0 tools is during the last couple of months of a school year. As the school year begins to wind down, students need to experience new learning strategies and challenges to keep them focused. These new challenges help avoid the typical end of school year fever, which often undermines learning.
