"In the last year Wakelet has become a popular tool amongst teachers for creating collections of bookmarks, notes, videos, pictures, and documents. Wakelet can be used to create individual collections. It can also be used to collaboratively create collections. Collections made on Wakelet can be private, public, or unlisted (semi-public). Unlike some of its competitors, Wakelet doesn't limit the number of collections that you can create within your account."

"Wakelet is constantly coming up with new features that enhance the user experience. While I could easily share 15 or 20 Wakelet features that I love, for this blog, I was asked to share five features that you might not already know about (don't say anything, but I did manage to sneak in a 6th - shh!)"

"The Internet is full of useful information … and it's getting fuller every day. The struggle these days isn't finding enough information. It's knowing what to do with it when we find it. That's curation. Students can act like museum curators, finding the best and most representative pieces to add to their collections to share with others. It's an important life skill, too. As they get older, knowing how to gather, organize and make sense of useful bits of information will help them be more productive and efficient."
