Social Technology Taster Workshop

Today our section with the assistance of Ireland Ireland ran a workshop with local community services workers on the range of Web 2.0 tools that are available. We had a look at some WIKIS and BLOGS and digital stories. Words like sharepoint, podcasts and Youtube started to have some meaning. We asked ourselves whether technology can in fact strengthen our relationships with clients and other workers. How can we use these tools as ways to empower our clients and assist both clients and workers into the digital age.

The web 2.0 tools are low cost and relatively easy.
