Diigo Bookmarks

=Using Diigo Bookmarks in a classroom can be very helpful. Diigo Bookmarks is a social bookmarking website that allows you to bookmark and tag web-pages. They can be used in a classroom for students to bookmark websites they want to use for a project. Teachers can look at the bookmarked websites and agree with the students or not whether they are good websites to use. Also, teachers can use this to bookmark websites they like and students can view what their teacher is suggesting to use. This can also be used throughout the school with the teachers. Teachers can all share with each other the websites they have found useful in planning lessons. = = = = = = = =As a teacher, you would be using the Maryland Teacher Technology Standard II ( Communication ) and Standard VII (Professional Growth) and National Education Technology Standard of Communication and Collaboration, Research and Information Fluency, and Technology Operations & Concepts. = = = = = =The UDL approach can be done with Diigos because the whole class can have the chance to bookmark things that they believe will work in a project, classwork, etc. This way no child can be left out unless they decide to not participate in the bookmarking. = = = = = = = =Get started using Diigo Bookmarks: www.diigo.com = = = = = = = =Need some extra help? = =media type="custom" key="7755925" = = = = = = = = If you have any other questions about Diigo, please email me at cbooth2@students.towson.edu =
