This is an app that eliminates clutter, pop-ups, ads, etc. from websites so that you can read them more easily. (Great if you want to bring something up on the smartboard!!)

Helpful tips for making classroom viewing of Youtube videos without the clutter. I've used Viewpure, Safeshare, and Quietube. I tried the Quietube button on the bookmarks toolbar and it worked well. I also use the Google Extension - Magic Action for Youtube, which allows me to adjust the volume with my scroll wheel while the video is playing.

One of the chief pleasures of a book is mental solitude, that deep, quiet focus on an author's thoughts—and your own.
- Carol Ansel on 18 Jan 12
  
  I'm glad this was pointed out - while I don't disagree that online books have great potential for community interaction, I can also see more clutter, distraction and fragmentation of attention as a side effect.

"Teens gather in networked public spaces to negotiate identity, gossip, support one another, jockey for status, collaborate, share information, flirt, joke, and goof around,"

To the uninitiated, however, the photos, videos, and cryptic comments that kids post on their personal pages often appear as impenetrable as a tenth grader's cluttered locker. Because schools tend to block access to social-networking sites, many educators have a tough time harnessing their potential as a teaching tool and modeling appropriate networking-site behaviors.

  Blocking of the sites makes it difficult for teachers to use it effectively.

Strategies for online reading comprehension - 92 views

comprehension

shared by meldar on 01 Dec 10 - No Cached

We traditionally think of reading in terms of sounding out words, understanding the meaning of those words, and putting those words into some contextual understanding.

If the kind of text our students are encountering in these online travels is embedded with so many links and media, and if those texts are connected to other associated pages (with even more links and media), hosted by who-knows-whom, the act of reading online quickly becomes an act of hunting for treasure, with red herrings all over the place that can easily divert one’s attention.
...

As educators, we need to take a closer look at what online reading is all about and think about how we can help our students not only navigate with comprehension but also understand the underlying structure of this world.

  Diigo decided it was doing too much and wanted to do one thing really well instead, so they focused on annotating websites.
