Participants concentrating on  Web 2.0 Tools Workshop



I found that  Web 2.0 workshop will give me a hand since from now on wards i will be able to teach my students various skills of knowledge sharing methods. The skills will also be imparted to both lecturers
 researchers and clinicians as the knowledge sharing  tools  will help them  in teaching, learning, research and clinical works at the university and at the hospital as well.
Further the following stands as opportunities for Sharing knowledge:
•    Searching before doing is encouraging
•    In Practice few do access it
•    People are using a number of tools to help with learning and sharing knowledge

Web 2.0 a Social Networking at MUHAS Community

Web 2.0 is among a Social Networking which can be used by lecturers, researchers in sharing and disseminating information to both students as well as  health professionals at Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS ).
The tools for Web 2.0 consist of Blogger, WIKI, Twitter, Mash ups,Facebook, google docs, you tube and so forth. Therefore, I believe that both Lecturers, Students and Clinicians can use it as an interactive knowledge  information sharing in teaching, learning and research.
