Blogging v. teaching | Dangerously Irrelevant - 0 views

  • Blogging, then, whether in graduate schools or kindergartens - in elite universities or slum schools - binds all of us together. In blogging we display our views of knowledge and learning, we advertise our ideas, how we reason, and how we struggle with moral choices whether we intend to or not. To blog is to enlist in a technical, morally based vocation... Edubloggers, do you see blogging as an extension of your teaching? If not, should you? On the flip side, do you see teaching as an extension of your blogging?

Six Reasons Why Kids Should Know How to Blog | MindShift - 0 views

  •  
    PRIDE IN THEIR WORK. For many of our students, their world view is changing as a result of posting in public spaces. Many of them have embedded clustr maps into their sidebars, and they can see where people are visiting from. Recently, one of our students posted about the effect this global audience has had on her: "Okay- so is this is amazing. I've used this blog since March 30th and so far it's been a great resource and an amazing display of some of my work this year. It hasn't just been my teachers, my classmates, my family and I that have looked at it - as of August 6 my blog has had 533 visits worldwide. Amazing or what? WOW."

What difference does blogging make for students? - Reflections of a Techie - 0 views

    Student Challenges I learned how to bit by bit teach the kids how to be responsible, safe and write for the blogging world. I had thought we'd only do a class blog...no individual blogs this semester. Their writing has improved so much and they will actually come up to me and ask me to delete the first thing they wrote so they can improve it and re-post.  They begged me to let them have their own blogs and I gave in as long as they could demonstrate they could write well and knew the internet safety rules.  About 25% of my students earned my trust that they could handle the responsibilty of their own blog...and many have become their own blog

      I like the idea here to reflect on the characteristics of quality annotations. I think this is an important skill to teach.

    Here is an example of an activity where students reflect on annotations of others using Diigo. I think this is an important skill to learn.

Taking Diigo Beyond the Bookmark - 0 views

      Excellent idea
  • Books to Read List Every reader has a list of the books they intend to read. Personally, I’ve tried web reading lists, text files, and spreadsheets but Diigo is the best way I’ve discovered to create a book list. Here’s how:
  • Now all your books are categorized and you can generate a report that includes pictures of the cover and ISBN number. If you are part of a bookclub invite the others into a group to share notes and recommendations.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • The internet is the ultimate showcase and the designers I follow on twitter are always sharing great examples of web design, themes, logos, and typography. Why not create an inspiration library? tag by type of design – website, logo, font tag by style – minimalist, color pattern, clean, modern, retro

Why Would Teachers Use Diigo? | Clif's Notes - 0 views

  • Perhaps more importantly it allows teachers to share experiences with those resources. If I have used a particular demonstration or animation from a site, but found something to be unclear or incorrect I can add a sticky and let other members of my group know.
  • the teacher can annotate the web site and leave a sticky note with vocabulary words. I like the sticky note to leave additional directions or a question.

      I really like this idea as 'time' is always the factor for me.
  • Think of how you could use this in school. For example, you could require your students to join a particular group and bookmark useful sites there, and have that published once a week, say. So their weekly homework would be to check the blog every week to see what's new, and to explore the freshly-bookmarked sites.

      this could be a good way to have students look at reliable sources.
    • Michele Dirksen
       
      i like this idea as it may help students to summarize information as opposed to cutting and pasting (plagerizing) information from a website
  • Students can use virtual sticky notes to summarize the important points of information from the website. This activity will mimic the time-tested procedure of using note cards to summarize and organize research projects.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Classes could supplement their textbook with information from the web. Diigo could facilitate student discussions about the bookmarks. Annotations could be used to gauge student thinking.
  • Diigo is a powerful information capturing, storing, recalling and sharing tool.
  •  
    I like the idea of thinking about sticky notes as virtual note-cards. What are the benefits of the virtual bit?
