Discourses about Web 2.0 and education: a semiotic analysis

The emergence of Web 2.0 and its application in the context of education are still very new and virtually unknown in the schools of basic education, and even higher education. While we are immersed in this new technology, we rarely stop to infer its effects. A study of some texts caught in the web can help us understand some senses involved in this new approach. What is / are the discourse (s) defended in these texts? By fundamental, narrative and discursive levels of French semiotics, some tools of the syntax and semantics contributed to reveal the construction of the text and the senses aggregates to it. Based on verbal texts (article), Imaging (charge, schedule) and syncretic (video), we direct our focus to the plane of content to determine variations and invariant between products current on the relationship between Web 2.0 and education.
