I'm hooked, Diigo is an amazing collaboration and educational tool for teachers. This is going to be a great tool to help my students and their parents find quality websites that will allow them help their students get a quick refresher or practice skills taught in class. Also, it will help me be more productive because I don't have to try and remember all the good sites that I find for my students by memory or go back to my computer to get the web addresses. When I use them in class or the computer lab, I can have students go right to my diigo page to pull up the website to practice instead of having them type in the address (a huge waste of time with 30 elementary students). Finally, I can't wait to set up an account that my students and parents can access where we can communicate back and forth. It will save on a lot of phone calls to parents.
Hi Chad,
ReplyDeleteI like your idea about using Diigo to guide students and parents to websites. That will be helpful. You could also think about having students highlight and annotate sites using the diigolett tool found here: http://www.diigo.com/tools/diigolet. Have fun.
