Thing 12

When initially watching the diigo youtube video, I felt like I was watching the old ginsu knife commercial...just when you think you've heard all that the product can do...wait there's more!! I admit saying that diigo is delicious on steroids is an understatement!! By the time I was done watching the youtube video, my brain hurt...I actually had one of those thoughts "maybe I'm just getting too old for this..". But then I gathered my senior self together and tackled it. I dumped all my delicious bookmarks into diigo and added a few more. The feature that I am looking forward to the most is the sidebar "webslides" feature. With students I plan on attempting to use the hi-lighting feature for making reports (upper el students. I am not yet sure how I envision it for lower el students.

One of the things we try to teach students is how to pick out the most important parts of a story, or article. Diigo is a great way to do that with websites.
