In this blog I'm going to write about a web 2.0 application that could be useful in the world of education. The application that I have decided to look at is called Tag Galaxy.
http://taggalaxy.de/
This website could be good for education because if a student can't think of what something is called but they really need it for an assignment or project it is very helpful. To get going with Tag Galaxy you type in an initial word that has something to do with the object or thing you are thinking about and it will give you a list of characteristics, pick one that has something to do with what you are thinking of then it gives you more options to click on to do with that.
The name galaxy is given to it because the word that you choose comes up as a big planet in the middle of the solar system with lots of little planets around it giving more options. Once you've clicked on everything to do with what you are talking about it will give you many photos that it thinks is to do with your object that it has.
I think this could be very helpful in education and I think it should be used.
