One thing that isn't covered explicitly anywhere on this group is how to annotate or bookmark. There are two options:

(1) Install the Diigo Toolbar on your browser. Go to this page to find out more:
http://www.diigo.com/tools/toolbar
This has excellent features, and is what I use on my own computer. But, it can be a bit frustrating to have toolbar after toolbar on your browser. Especially if you already have a Google toolbar or something else. That is why you can get...

(2) Install the Diigolet. This is just a drag and drop button that you add to your browser. No need for fancy downloads or anything. That website is here:
http://www.diigo.com/tools/diigolet

Remember! Always add things to our Group when you bookmark/annotate things!

Greetings 109H Students!

This forum contains posts and discussions about Diigo-based assignments. Feel free to leave comments here regarding questions and the ChemPaths administrator will get back to you!

For this first assignment, Please go through the WebSlide show for the Wave tutorial we briefly went over in class. As you go along the path, note that there are external sites, or similar sites, along the sidebar. Take a look at these if the title sounds interesting. This is what I will refer to as 'meandering.'

Annotations:
Experiment with annotations. Make notes to yourself - highlighting or sticky notes. For this assignment, please annotate at least two (2) pages along the path. You may choose to add private notes, but make these two public.

Bookmarks:
Each bookmark you add using your Diigo account should be added into your 109H group list. Please add at least two (2) bookmarks to our group from external sites. At least one should be from some sort of sidebar link (or one you found after linking off the sidebar). The other one can be any site you choose! You may choose to annotate these bookmarks or not.

Go to the tutorial either by selecting it from the bookmarks list on the Group Home Page, or click here.

Meet up outside of class, or find a study group here. Announce a meeting, or as if anyone else wants to join you at a library.

(note: this forum is for your own use, so feel free to be less formal)

Please post your comments about your experiences here. What was useful? What would you use again? What is not as helpful? How would you change it?
