or start to the next lesson
-
many fantastic links from the diigo in education group
-
reccomend all teachers with an interest in using web2.0 in their teaching to join this group
-
Tips/Tricks/Pitfalls
-
My students were A-Level
-
reasonably mature (16/17)
-
I was on hand to support in a very intensive way
-
the group was small (about 9)
-
things that you should absolutely do to make sure students use diigo properly
-
select the drop down menu
-
as soon as they start writing a note
-
decide if the content they are writing is to be shared
-
find the group you have assigned them to belong to and select that.
-
Highlighting is fiddly
-
I find that highlighting with Diigolet (with Safari in Mac OS X) feels better than with installed versions of Diigo.
-
-
Keep the diigo homepage open
-
open a seperate browser or tab
-
Making use of your group’
-
favourite
-
review the annotations we’ve all made
-
a good plenary
-
Diigo – its effect on me
-
debates
-
Moderating those pesky post-it notes
-
Where next for diigo?
-
I was new to the whole social bookmarking thing
-
more potential for taking the links found further
-
more usability in the forum
-
plus the ability to easily add in some tricksy multimedia
-
a stranded approach to posts
-
confusing
-
use diigo in interesting ways
-
deeper learning
-
Final thoughts
-
use it with much younger students
-
easily create accounts for students
-
don’t need a long list of their email addresses
-
most impressed by how much diigo enabled students to vocalise their thoughts
-
security and space
-
without feeling pressured
-
others (particularly in different subjects), might discover interesting and different ways of using it
-
This in turn will lead to more ideas for everyone involved.
-
Conceptually diigo addresses some big problems
-
put simply it enskills them to use the internet in an open way
-
challenging those sticky note annotations also increases their value
-
things randing from validity of information to building collective knowledge as a group

History

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.

Feedback from a relatively new user of Diigo: orientation etc.. - 1 views
-
searching people by tags is useful for discovering like-minded people in the community
-
benefit from their bookmarks
-
much more useful if the results could be sorted
- ...24 more annotations...
-
Without this
-
more cumbersome
-
also valid for the search function in Diigo
-
direct access to bookmarks tagged with the searched tags
-
much more useful for exploring new pages related to a topic
-
more detailed & better results more easily
-
I would not have come across this feature
-
filter by tags
-
My Library
-
clue that it can also be used to search for bookmarks with a tag anywhere
-
watchlists used to provide
-
title like "Look for" or "Discover"

adding it under Community

Diigo: the Ultimate Bookmarks Solution

-
a huge fan of Instapaper
-
for all my bookmarking and reading
-
the application I use most often
-
one of the 21 iPhone apps that make everything awesome
-
manage information
-
it’s losing the battle for my usership to Diigo
-
fantastic bookmarking service
-
an iPhone app from Diigo
-
wasn’t as good as Instapaper – until now
-
a new release that might just blow all other information-managers
-
out of the water
-
that was all already available from Diigo – and I eventually left
-
why I’m switching back:
-
follow someone on Diigo
-
tap into a whole network of bookmarks
-
the usefulness of Twitter, without the inane
-
always been better
-
download bookmarks and read them offline
-
Diigo lets you archive an entire web page, and make it searchable
-
quick snapshots of how a site looked and felt, both in HTML and image format
-
easier to save, tag, and find bookmarks
-
Simpler interface
-

I won't use any service unless I can capture or retrieve in under two clicks
-
it rocks
-
Diigo does that
-
reap the seeds
-
serve me quite nicely for years to come
-
Well done Diigo team
