Education and Web 2.0

What did you learn about this weeks topic through the Diigo activity?

Diigo is a tool that enables students, teachers, and people to do what is called social annotating.  What this website is, is a online bookmarking tool that can be easily installed to your browser.  Once installed, you can bookmark, annotate, and share pages you have found on the internet.  This is an awesome tool for teachers and students to use.  For example, in class we found educational websites, bookmarked and shared them to our classmates.  In addition to this, we read educational articles and left annotations and highlights throughout this.  Not only is this great for your own personal use, but your group members can also see your highlights and comments if you want them to!  From here, they can leave additional comments and highlights.  What is so great about all of this is that people are learning through the use of technology and interacting with other teachers, students, and peers in their class.  Diigo is such a great tool that I think all teachers can benefit from, it is definitely something I can see myself using in the future.
