      Hi, this is Kitty. This is one of my highlights. It is an important idea. You can add your own highlights and even make a note. This is a good way to lean new ideas and words.

      Tom, I love this little hint. It is very hard for students to find the big idea given that they are novices in the new domain (if they weren't, why would they need teaching? :o) By definition and from research we know that novices in a domain have trouble finding salient points quickly whereas experts are defined by being able to see things that novices cannot. Have you ever noticed this in yourself when you are learning something new? (for example, these new tech tools! :o) I think Diigo has lots of potential to be a great "just-in-time" support for students. What do you think?

      Hi Yvonne, good point about the good idea, but I can't take credit for the icon, it was part of the original web page, the author deserves credit. I do think that Diigo has great promise for students and teachers. I am still learning how to use it. There are a lot of web resources for high school students, but the language level is too advanced for my students to access. Diigo could be used to lead them through a trail of big ideas, for example, and language support. Tom

UDL Toolkits: Teaching Every Student - 1 views

  • Students should record assigned words, their meanings, and examples of use in their journals.
    • Thomas Page
       
      I could use stiky notes in webpages. Students could use a wiki instead of a journal and link to pictures/use public domain pictures. Students could compose sentences. Students could use google translater.
  • The goal of this activity is to encourage students to think about how words are used and how they fit together.
