  •  
    i haven't heard of the Personalized Learning" movement before. Interesting. "10. Personal Learning Plans: A new law in Vermont calls for every student in grades 7-12 to create, with adult help, a personal learning plan based on that student's interests and ambitions. The so-called PLP must include not just a list of courses leading to a job or career, but also experiences outside a school setting."

Social Bookmarking in Education with Diigo - 1 views

  • if you install the Diigo toolbar, or toolbar button, you have the ability to highlight text and pictures in a variety of colors, or add sticky notes to a bookmarked page. With this feature you can annotate web pages with thoughts, ideas or additional information. All these notes are saved for the next time you access the saved bookmark, and anyone else you share the bookmark with, (students or teachers), will also see your annotations. It is a great way to focus attention on a large article.

      I've used the highlighting tool with 3rd graders. I highlighted the area that contained the information I wanted them to find.
  • Your Diigo bookmarks can be public, or private, and there are numerous options for sharing with individuals, groups
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • With Diigo Educator accounts, the privacy settings, by default, limit communication to that of classmates and teachers only. Lastly, students in the same class are automatically set up as a group, so all saved bookmarks can instantly be shared with peers
  • The real bonus of using social bookmarking with your class is the ease that you can work on project based learning tasks.
  • Bookmarks can be organized within group to cover several different projects, and the chance to archive for next year's class is a great time saver for teachers.
