Robbing Students of Recognition | Ideas and Thoughts from an EdTech - 0 views

  • As soon as I read it I realize they had violated our district policy which states we will never publish a photo of a student with a full name. I also realized in that moment how absurd that policy is.

  • Most social bookmark services encourage users to organize their bookmarks with informal tags instead of the traditional browser-based system of folders, although some services feature categories/folders or a combination of folders and tags.

Some social bookmarking services also draw inferences from the relationship of tags to create clusters of tags or bookmarks.
  • Every year when we return our laptops to I.T to be re-imaged we often forget to back-up our bookmarks that we spent all year organizing and compiling.
