Easel.ly I teach 6th grade. We are not allowed to have our [under age 13] students sign up on any website that requires personally identifiable information. Can I create a "generic" account that all of my students may use for a class project? * Reply * Share › − Avatar vernon Mod Book Lady * 5 months ago Hi! So what you can do is use our Groups feature it allows everything that you need: http://www.easel.ly/blog/easel... vernon@easel.ly is my email if you need any help getting up and running.

One class with 2 groups

You are given one class. From there you can add as many groups as you want

Is anyone else experiencing difficulty adding students and groups?

Does anyone know why diigo is listed as a proxi server?

anyone not able to add students with existing email accounts?

My Assistant tried to add a batch of students and nothing showed up in the end. Hmmmm....

testing

I'd like to know how to move bookmarks from my individual Diigo to my course diigo. Help?

Can anyone tell me why these sticky notes are on my library screen.  I did not realize this screen was open to the world.

they were marked as public

Any advice for a brand new user? I am trying to create a group for students who need extra help studying for those high stakes tests.

I'm lovin' it!

use this one

I am confused.

Can students create groups within the class group that I set up?

This is a bad idea... you should only be able to bet in favor of advanced academic performance

"People learn through conversations"

"Easy to teach teachers to use technology. Difficult to get the teachers to shift control away from themselves to the kids."

"Tech robbed kids of the opportunity to make a contribution to their communities." How can I find a way to help kids contribute, via English class?

"Interdisc. Bauhaus created an amazing flow of ideas." How can we make our classes more interdisc.?

"Need authentic conversations locally and around the world"

All of these skills mentioned above are exactly what are essential in the 21st century workplace.

"this gives students more of a choice to do the kinds of assignments they want to do, as opposed to just the teacher deciding." You would certainly need to check that they were doing challenging, relevant work.

"Teach kids really good research skills. Have them look up assignments and related material from other teachers from all over the world." And then do what with them?

"Have an official Note Taker each class as well. Have the class as a whole review the notes to see if they are good/correct."

"Another solution: you need to be more reflective on the body of work that you are doing. What have I learned? Where have I been and where am I going?" How do you do this?

Concrete idea for how to answer the above, last question. He used a concrete example from a 3rd grade class: "Have the kids create a podcast every week of what they learned. Have a writer, producer, mixer, etc." Would you do that during class time or outside of classtime?

"One solution: have an official classroom researcher everyday in your class." The job would be to gather the websites that will be used connected to whatever it is you're studying? Is that right? Need more thought on this.

"Final Myth: Tech will make kids smarter. Actually it's a distraction. Creates more plagiarism and people wanting to get things done. Losing critical thinking." How can we use the enormous resources of the internet and at the same time increase critical thinking?

"Another myth: the internet will give people a range of ideas. The opposite is true. People search out their version of the truth, e.g. Fox News or Huffington Post." I find this to be incredibly true.

"It's a myth that tech will be the great equilizer in society. At least not for now." Why?
