Three Uses of Diigo in the History and Language Arts Classroom | Beyond School - 0 views

  • Screencast: Using Diigo on Student Scribe Blogs as Test Review “Sheets” (20 September 2007)
  • From Red Pen to Invisible Ink: Assessing Student Blogs with Diigo Groups (23 March 2007)
  • How to Highlight and “Sticky-Note” Websites, and Save It All Online, Using Diigo (1 January 2007)
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • My students have joined the Group. Now when they go to their web-logs, after logging in to their Diigo account and setting “Show Annotations > Show Group Annotations” on their Diigo toolbar, they will see the highlights of specific passages from their writing that I have left (and I can start students doing this too, it occurs to me in a very attractive flash), and my annotations will pop up on their screen when they hover their mouse over the highlights.

      I love this idea about using diigo instead of comments to markup students blogs.  I don't think I've seen this post before.
  • And since they’re using anagrams instead of first-name usernames on their blogs, there’s less of a chance of any embarrassment resulting from this “public feedback”–with “invisible ink.”

      This is a great way to do research together in a classroom. A class could start off by talking about an article. The teacher could give some examples on the smartboard with diigo. Since it's shared, students could continue to collaborate over the same article... this could be research or correcting/proofing a paper together 
  • Diigo allows students to start a “topic” discussion within their group.
  • We spent the last part of the class “playing” with this section.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • discovered the truly collaborative
  • students highlight the relevant text in a chosen colour.
  • they re-write that section in their own words.
  • use Diigo as a collaborative research tool with students in another school.

    I love the idea of using the sticky notes in Diigo to summarize an online text. At the moment in my class, we're working on annotating when we read fiction, and it would be helpful for the students to also use this tool so that they can appreciate how important it is to make notes as you're reading.

    I am amazed to see how 'managing knowledge' has been streamlined by Diigo! It was empowering to successfully go through the steps to Bookmark from the Web. Tag words make complete sense. That's eaxctly how kids would, should analytically think. We say Key words...here it is tag words. So, on a shared platform, if students are collaborating and students who have already researched particular topics insert those tag words, it avoids 'extra' searching by another by simply typing key words and getting onto sites or information that may have been missed. I totally agree with you Sarah as to the use of sticky notes finction. As part of the 6 traits of writing, I recall my daughter coming home with her reader, with sticky notes jutting out all over the book. It had to do with her thoughts and notes to herself with regards to the characters, plot or vocabulary. Similarly, in Diigo, students have the ability to do just this. Have it all there, if used correctly, as oppposed to scratching one's head and saying, "Where did I read that agian?"
