  • More and more employees are implementing the use of emerging Web 2.0 tools such as blogs, wikis, social networks, etc in workplaces. However, their attitudes towards adoption of Web 2.0 tools in workplaces still lack theoretical support. The purpose of this study aims to provide a conceptual examination of the determinants that influence the intention to use Web 2.0 applications in workplaces in Korea. To achieve this objective, this study selected the theory of reasoned action (TRA) as a theoretical basis to explain variation in behavioral intentions. Structural equation modeling was employed to analyze data collected from 269 workers distributed in 5 companies in Korea. In addition, we classified respondents into extroverts and introverts and delineated the different factors for these two types of respondents that affect their intentions to use Web 2.0 tools in workplaces. The findings of this research could provide a theoretical foundation for academics on the validation of technology adoption. This research will also serve as a guideline for service providers in designing the Web 2.0 services.

  • Modern internet service is characterized as opening, sharing and participation based on Web2.0 so that users might actively participate in the internet environment. In this study, we suggested an instructional model based on precedent model of robot programming to promote positive interaction in Web2.0 environment. First, we figured out implications of precedent research through review the environmental features of Web2.0 and educational tools, robot programming learning model. Also, we suggest an instructional model using Web2.0 tools(cyworld, prezi, Mindmeister) for promoting interaction and applied it to learners. As a result, we have acquired positive results of robot programming education using Web2.0 tools. Most participants were evaluated that Web2.0 tool would be helpful to the overall robot programming course.

  • In this paper, A study about using Web 2.0 tools for school academic calendar can be managed systematically and effectively. Academic Calendar of elementary school as a whole displays a calendar and is managed and operated as a traditional academic calendar management system. Academic Calendar of the existing system configuration and operating primarily to teachers, parents, students, and participation in the sharing of information is inefficient. As a result of openness and sharing of information, the user is at the core of the participating elementary school academic calendar to take advantage of Web 2.0 to design and implement management systems were applied experimentally. School Calendar Web 2.0 tools used to manage the teachers, parents, students, seamless communication and sharing of information available and The school year schedule is repeated almost the same characteristics because it has very great significance of the information has recycled.

  • In this study, based on the current curriculum of consumer education in high school with the advent of Web 2.0 age, I analyzed both the curriculum used by new information tools related with Web 2.0 age and the one used by traditional tools to find out the degree of necessity of consumer education for the high school students in proportion to the level of their informational ability. First, compared with the education of food, clothes and shelter in the curriculum of manual training and domestic science, the necessity, importance, and availability were low and the students had a lower level of interest than they had with the three factors mentioned above. Second, after dividing the sector of consumer education in the curriculum into three fields such as reasonable purchase and use, solution and prevention of consumer problems and forming a new consumer trend, I looked into the necessity of the teaching method using conventional tools and the one using new informational tools following Web 2.0 age respectively. Traditional tools were favored for the education of consumption-related laws and policies, consumers' rights for the general cause of consumer problem solving and preventing. For the generation of the new comsumer trend, the new information tools were preferred in the appreciation of consuming culture and the issues of consuming environment. Third, it was revealed that students' level of informational ethics was the highest at 5.55 while their level of information creation and processing was the lowest at 3.96 from the research of six categories of their informational ability.

  • Due to the progress of Bioinformatics field, We are making use of analyzing tools for effective analyzing enormous data of DNA sequence. But there was inconvenience in existing tools when searching and applying data for analyzing. Our treatise proposes a tool developed by a form based on RIA(Rich Internet Application) that you can solve the problems came from weak points. The analyzing tool for RIA indexing data of DNA sequence shows the results by real time in basis of Web 2.0 which supplemented basis on a form of Web. The web application was developed in Flex2 on Windows workstation.

  • Recently, RESTful web service is getting attention with the emergence of Web 2.0. The main advantages of REST web services are lightweight and easy implementation compared to SOAP based web services. In order to define and describe RESTful APIs, various methods have proposed. WSDL 2.0 can describe both SOAP-based and RESTful services and but it is too complicated. WADL is championed by Sun Microsystems and it is lightweight, easier to understand and easier to write than WSDL. The purpose of WADL is to allow web services to be described in a machine readable way, to make it easy to create Web 2.0 applications and create a dynamic way of creating and configuring services. However, WADL does not provide utility tools to generate client code automatically and the developers describe client code manually. In this paper, we design and implement a WADL2Stub system to generate client code from WADL files automatically so that the developers use REST web services to easily and conveniently.

  • This study examined the perception and use of web 2.0 applications for academic purposes by medical students of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma. The objective was to investigate the medical students' perceptions of web 2.0 applications, web 2.0 tools use, extent of use, perception and purpose for using web 2.0 applications. Descriptive survey method was used for this study. The total population of this study was 3670 and the sample size was 367 representing 10% of the study. The purposive sampling technique was adopted, and the instrument used for this study was questionnaire, a total of 367 copies were administered and 321 were found useful for the study. Percentage means and standard deviation on table and chart were used to analyze the data collected using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software. Findings showed that the perception of web 2.0 applications of medical students AAU was positive and few of web 2.0 applications were used for academic purposes. It was recommended in the study that medical students should be provided with the facilities in a format more familiar to them and used by most of them and institutions need to equip the learning process with the needed facilities which will be of utmost benefit even for future purposes.
