Reflect on the Article Web 2.0 by P. Clint Rogers, Peter Chan, and Brady ISOM

The main message of the article "Web 2.0" by P. Clint Rogers, Peter Chan, and Brady ISOM is to "provide a stepping stone in some of the theoretical background, history, and possibilities for learning systems and platforms in the Web 2.0 era" (17). The supporting massages of this article are: Theoretical background; Web 2.0, E- learning 2.0, and the net Generation; Role of Standards in E-Learning; and Scorm and a Web 2.0 Global Learning Community Platform. In the supporting materials the authors exposes the idea of Cognitivism; the difference between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0; the benefits of using SCORM; and the feature of SCORM. One of the example that the authors use to illustrate the Theoretical Background is about asking people about the concept 'Paris, where the authors affirm that " in our minds, the concept 'Paris' is a loose association of a whole bunch of different things, hence the concept 'Paris' exits in no particular place in our mind, but rather, is scattered throughout our minds" (17). This article helps me to understand the importance of E-learning and how this can benefit my professional development. I learned the benefits and a little bit of how to use SCORM.
