This introduction of Web 2.0 tools is written for parents who want to understand how their children are using today's Internet, both in school and in their social lives.

For parents who want to raise their comfort level with today's Web capabilities, for those who want to enhance their children's Internet usage in and out of school, and for those who want to be prepared for potential dark alleys in the online world, The Web and Parents: Are You Tech Savvy? is a welcome new resource.

Don't know a blog from a Wiki? MySpace from Facebook? An RSS feed from an instant message? The Web and Parents provides a brief introduction to these and other aspects of Web 2.0, including podcasts, forums, graphic generators, photo storage and file-sharing sites, and more. Parents will get a sense of what each tool or resource does, how they themselves might use them--lots of grownups do, really--and the role each plays in current K-12 education and in the lives of school-age children. With this crash course on today's Internet, the Web becomes a place where families come together, not drift apart.
