I've used Diigo teacher account to set up accounts for my 105 fifth graders this past spring. I put all students in a main group (Colonial Resources) and then students studying a particular colony in another group. The students were able to use my suggested links and then added some they also found. I was able to monitor it and students began to write to each other using the comments also. I would have liked the classroom teachers to become more involved but it certainly was a good start. Plan to use it again this year both for fourth and fifth grades.
