Why We Like Diigo
-
use the web to research
-
as easily as if I were using a yellow highlighter and a red pen
-
mark up web pages
-
no longer need to copy
-
all digitally facilitated with the Diigo social bookmarking and annotating tool
-
shifted the way I read the world wide web
-
much more active
-
in the same way I use a paper textbook
-
scribble in the margins
-
"dog-ear" important pages
-
individually or collaboratively
-
highlight and comment as I go, building a path
-
snippets that I want to remember
-
return to what is important
-
information-processing is heightened
-
a greater level of usefulness
-
not tied to any one computer
-
private or public sticky notes
-
a powerful collaborative tool
-
message boards
-
automated email summaries
-
extract highlighted text from a set of web pages
-
create a personalized learning environment for any topic

"Extract Annotations"
-
replicating what I used to do on paper
-
all of those highlighted passages in one place
-
Diigo saves me a lot of this time
-
access many more sources of information
-
my ability to scan, organize, and absorb multiple sources of information is greatly increased
-
also see what others have highlighted or commented
-
when I search on Diigo the results are based on what my colleagues in the field have identified as important and relevant
-
Diigo is a tool that fosters collaboration and resource sharing
-
benefit from others' insight
-
faculty committees use Diigo
-
everyone on the committee has access to a growing set of shared links
-
such as ways we can build a more sustainable culture
-
helps to identify important segments
-
the more of an individual’s thoughts they include via the commenting tools, the better
-
-
thoughtful comments tied to specific portions of the text are more illuminating
-
localized comments
-
fruitful conversations
-
create your own groups for any purpose
-
feedback of other group members
-
discover new tools and content
-
When I was ready to collect
-
professional development interests of each teacher
-
exciting for me and my students
-
metacognition (thinking about thinking)
-
-
I used the Diigo for educators feature to set all the students up with an account that meets COPPA requirements
-
I had such a fun time
-
assess the students' work
-
really cool
-
like I was reading the stories along with each of them
-
kids used the tools built in to Diigo to demonstrate their use of the reading strategies that we've been practicing with paper text
-
showed their thinking
-
asking questions, reflecting, and analyzing the text by inserting these as comments
-
a powerful tool for supporting and scaffolding metacognition
-
deepens my thinking about the content
-
see how my colleagues have responded
-
my Diigo network
-
-
Diigo also stores a "cached" version of each web page you visit
-
the best tool is one that meets all of our needs all of the time. We believe that Diigo is this tool.
-
Diigo can also be set to update other networks
-
Diigo is a powerful tool that is literally changing the way that we look at the web. It has gotten me excited about bookmarking again.
