Read a dialogue between two people discussing the pros and cons of choosing organic food. Includes a worksheet for students to fill in different opinions on the pros and cons of eating organic foods.

Hi Leelah, nice job finding and posting resources on Diigo! One issue that I noticed is that you tagged this and some other resources "BWG organic search" instead of "BGWOrganicSearch" (Notice there are no spaces). While this may seem like a minor distinction, the purpose of asking students to use these specific tags is so that anybody in the course can easily find all the resources related to organic foods by simply clicking on a common tag. You can fix the tags by clicking edit for each bookmark. Also, I noticed that you bookmarked several articles about organic food, but I don't see that you bookmarked any general search engines for kids as requested in Assignment 7 - Part 2. Thanks

Another thing I noticed is that because you are using spaces in your tags some of the phrases that you want to tag, for example "pros and cons of organic" are getting split up into several smaller tags. The issue with this is that it creates tags that don't have much meaning, for example "of" or "and". The best way to group a phrase as a single tag is to put quotes around the entire tag, like "pros and cons of organic". Other ways are to put underscores between words, like pros_and_cons_or_organic. And a final way is to not use spaces and to vary the capitalization, like example ProsAndConsOfOrganic.

Hi Heather, great job finding, sharing and commenting on resources on Diigo! I would like to make one suggestion. You will notice that the title of this bookmark is "Document View - ProQuest", which is what Diigo automatically puts in as a title when you bookmark the article. Since this is too generic and not very helpful to let other students know what the article is about, it would be useful to edit the title (either at the moment you are bookmarking or after) to include the actual title of the article. Again, thanks for your great contributions to the course.

On GoAnimate you can make your own animated characters,direct your own cartoons and watch others' creations.It's easy, fun and free!

I am a big fan of the Open Directory and this is a great listing of sites for kids around food production and farming. It may be a great place to get started.

Hi Steve, I noticed that you tagged this and some other resources "BWGOrganic Search Tools" instead of "BGWOrganicSearch" and/or "BGWSearchTools". While this may seem like a minor distinction, the purpose of asking students to use these specific tags is so that anybody in the course can easily find all the resources related to either organic foods or general search tools by simply clicking on a common tag for each subject. You can fix the tags by clicking edit for each bookmark. Thanks

Done and done:)
