Interest in using Web 2.0 tools to complement or replace learning management systems (LMS) in higher education has exploded in the past decade. Higher education institutions require legally compliant warehouses to track student learning and store its artifacts, while students prefer the engaging, collaborative, and personalized learning environments offered by Web 2.0. Social networking sites, blogs, wikis, and video streaming services enable learning and collaboration in contexts unreachable by learning management systems. Researchers have argued for various integrations of Web 2.0 in classrooms to bridge the divide between institutional and student needs, but questions about the most desirable features for such an integration remain. Furthermore, while models predicting endorsement and use of Web 2.0 for educational purposes exist, the extent to which factors impacting choice have yet to be examined in depth. In this paper, we will discuss (a) recent research trends on Web 2.0 integrations and predictive models in higher education; and (b) additional choice-making factors to consider in future models of endorsement and use of Web 2.0 for learning.
