     Prezi is a Web 2.0 tool of great use and when reading its characteristics, is can notice the great importance of it in the realization of management and academic presentations in virtual mode; and also emphasize of the tool its versatility in allowing to share all class of resources (videos, images, music, audio, etc).

     It is an excellent way of researching about the new virtual learning tools, which are have at disposal and are used in nearest educational environments, especially in educational problem solving. Likewise, it is vitally important to mention that with this type of resources and virtual tools, the learning of each and every one is more autonomous and didactic.

Web 2.0 Tool "Facebook"

Author: Cristhian Javier Realpe Romo

WEB 2.0 – NETWORKS FACEBOOK

     Facebook is one of the tools for web 2.0, it is a popular free social networking website that allows registered users to create profiles, upload photos and video, send messages and keep in touch with friends, family and colleagues. The site, which is available in 37 different languages, includes public features such as:

·         Marketplace - allows members to post, read and respond to classified ads.

·         Groups - allows members who have common interests to find each other and interact.

·         Events  - allows members to publicize an event, invite guests and track who plans to attend.

·         Pages - allows members to create and promote a public page built around a specific topic.

Within each member's personal profile, there are several key networking components. The most popular is arguably the Wall, which is essentially a virtual bulletin board. Messages left on a member's Wall can be text, video or photos. Another popular component is the virtual Photo Album. Photos can be uploaded from the desktop or directly from a smartphone camera. There is no limitation on quantity, but Facebook staff will remove inappropriate or copyrighted images.  An interactive album feature allows the member's contacts (who are called generically called "friends") to comment on each other's photos and identify (tag) people in the photos. Another popular profile component is status updates, a microblogging feature that allows members to broadcast short Twitter-like announcements to their friends. All interactions are published in a news feed, which is distributed in real-time to the member's friends. 

Facebook offers a range of privacy options to its members.  A member can make all his communications visible to everyone, he can block specific connections or he can keep all his communications private. Members can choose whether or not to be searchable, decide which parts of their profile are public, decide what not to put in their news feed and determine exactly who can see their posts. For those members who wish to use Facebook to communicate privately, there is a message feature, which closely resembles email.

FACEBOOK AS AN EDUCATIONAL TOOL FOR STUDENTS OF EUCATION HIGHER

     Social networks allow interaction between people and constitute the phenomenon most important sociocommunication of the moment and Facebook, within them. This platform is being taken by companies and institution but has not been seen potential in the educational field. The paper summarizes the few experiences of teachers who have worked with Facebook and rework a proposal base don the instructional design and the first results of it with students from different universities.

     Social networks are one of the words that have recently been incorporated into cyber-language or reinterpreted from a technological platform, the Internet. What was previously done face to face, now is done through a platform through which you have "added" your friends or who you want and from that you can go to exchange information in a synchronous and asynchronous way because people can speak directly but also leave messages direct or in an open forum, called Wall, say and put what they want. Anyone can read it and therefore in doing so you can become aware of the life of that other person. The systems were developed with that goal, this is how social networks appear on the Internet. There are many and to mention a few are MySpace, hi5, Phothoblog, twitter and Facebook but when our mailing list has been congested by invitations to be part of Face or we learn that its creator is a new billionaire and that his company is worth millions of dollars is that something is happening.

     Facebook is a tool that allows the exchange of information basically of social nature placed in a technological platform that is Internet. Facebook does not educates as such, but can be a tool that facilitates learning.

     First of all I think that the teachers should take Facebook as the object of study to see where we can tie with our subjects and what way it is not about giving the class with Facebook because it was not designed for that.

Conclusions

Conclusions

     Through the present activity identified several resources of the web 2.0 tools that are of great utility in the educational field; it is for that reason that it is pertinent to emphasize the importance of processes development of this nature, and to continue with vocational training from several social and cultural spheres, always using technological resources.

     The investigative and argumentative work of individual character, allows the student to know and to learn from their environment through the implementation of their technological skills, and on the other hand, allows the teacher to implement new pedagogical processes to design teaching materials and problem solving.
