Abstract: The way people learn has evolved from a mostly passive to a more active process since the introduction of Web 2.0 paradigm. From the point of the learning processes new tools empowered students and teachers with new capabilities enhancing their learning methods but also introducing new responsibilities for the learning outcomes. These changes have initiated the transition from e-learning to e-learning 2.0. The new paradigm changes roles of participants in the learning process but also it changes the quantity and quality of the learning resources. As Internet users engage in creation and publication of new information, the quantity of available information becomes unmanageable. The need to verify and summarize information as learning resource becomes eminent. Possible solutions to these challenges are offered in form of information retrieval and information extraction methods that are made available to end users. Goal of this paper is to present some of these tools !
and their application in the course design. RSS feeds and mashups can be used to extract information and rearrange them in more convenient and useful resources for learning. Wiki pages can be used as an additional platform for exchange of ideas and interconnection of all the participants of the learning process. In this paper we will present some of the Web 2.0 tools and solutions that are used as additional learning resources for students in courses at the Faculty of Economics and Business University of Zagreb.
