Using contemporary social media services such as (but not limited to) Diigo, Twitter, Edmodo and Blogger, Candidates in this "hands-on" designed institute will connect with like-interested educators around the globe. Candidates will learn how to use these social media services to obtain "anytime, anywhere, professional development" and to integrate their new 21st Century Skills into their curriculum to enhance student learning.
Sessions 7 & 8: Diigo
1. Visit my Diigo library to see how this application can be used. click on the various "Tags" to see how I've organized my bookmarked sites.
2. Go to Diigo.com and create a new account. I would recommend using a school issued email so that you can register for a free Diigo Educator account.
3. Go to Tools > Browser Add-ons > Bookmarklets > Diigolet, bookmark, highlight, sticky note, share > Depending on the browser that you're using, you will either drag Diigolet to the tool bar or save it in Favorites
4. Diigo also has a feature called Groups where a user can invite other users to contribute to a Group’s web resources. This is a great idea for use in the classroom where students can all contribute to the pool of web resources as well as to comment on those resources. For our class, please create a group and invite us to join. I'm at: loria1023@verizon.net
5. Add bookmarks (and a few pictures) to your library.
