Abstract: This contribution focuses on emerging practices in the educational use of ICT and in particular of the so-called Web 2.0. After reviewing the main features of Web 2.0 and its educational uses, we will try to analyze in what respect Web 2.0 offers new opportunities and what kinds of new skills are required from both learners and teachers. We will use the Galanet environment designed in the early 2000s to examine the extent to which socio-constructivist pedagogies and social Web practices can be implemented through a somewhat hybrid Web 1.0/Web2.0 learning platform.
