Abstract—This paper reflects upon the issue posed by stu-dents ’ normal and extensive use of collaborative internet tools, the social web (Web 2.0). Internet-based cooperative activities are not usually well integrated with official school practice, though students dedicate most of their time to them. The paper attempts to consider the innovative col-laborative practices of Web 2.0, of social bookmarking (“Tagging”) as part of standard teaching, and what are the perspectives in the next future. Finally, the paper considers how the teacher’s role is being re-defined. Moreover, it at-tempts to analyze the possibilities of letting real life interact with teaching once again and to establish reliable criteria for assessment of students ’ activity through the web
