One of the best things about the educator accounts is that you can create the student accounts, and students do not need to provide an e-mail address. Another nice feature in Diigo is that you can upload an Excel spreadsheet in .csv format with student names, usernames and passwords, and the accounts are created in an instant. Student accounts are placed in a private class, and all of the students are considered "friends" and can share bookmarks, sticky notes and group forums automatically.

It was to some extent humiliating for students to realize that they had bought into a system which doesn't work. In which they can be convinced that they've learned something even though they haven't understood it. It was a bit of a shock to them, but that shock is essential. You have to be willing to accept that you don't really understand something if you're going to be a researcher who makes great discoveries of how nature functions and so on.

I have never been happy with the standard Qualitative Data Analysis (QDA) software options that have been available (or the prices!), so for the next 2 weeks I will be on a quest for the perfect fieldnotes management system that will be used by my incoming class of 15 students for our ethnographic project exploring anonymity on the web.

RSS allows casual readers to become ongoing subscribers, easily receiving new articles in a convenient way when they are available. A world without RSS (or, of course some other simple syndication protocol) would be a very bad world for blogs.

RIScienceTeachers is a free resource aimed at strengthening science education in Rhode Island schools. Because its focus is local, we hope that it becomes a valuable resource for teachers statewide. If you are a science teacher who shares a concern for what (and how) students learned science, we invite you to join the site and add your contribution.

Have you ever wanted to change your life? Make it easier or, at least, get rid of the tough stuff? Have you ever simply asked yourself, "What if?" Anyone who wants a void filled, a problem solved, or a question answered, can learn to innovate. And it doesn't matter how much education you have or how high you sit on the corporate ladder. If you think that learning innovation means reading boring instructional manuals and paying a fortune for classes, you're wrong.
