A space separates words and makes them into individual tags. You might have a look at how your resources are tagged and edit them by clicking on "bookmark" and revising your tags. See also Diigo help for how to tag. You are missing the "setonhall" or setonhall15 tags for this assignment on this post but have it on others so folks can't search for and find your contributions. You might want to make the tags consistent for your own use too as when you do a search for setonhall it won't necessarily find your items tagged setonhallteaching or setonhall15. Consistent tagging will make life easier. See assignment 2 instructions.
