Social Bookmarking Tools for Student Research Projects
Posted by Mary Woodard under 23 things, TechnologyPresenter: Jodie Smith, Melissa ISD
Social bookmarking sites allow us to share all of the great web sites that we find.
A comparison of three bookmarking sites from this session can be found on the Melissa ISD moodle site at http://web.melissaisd.org. Login as Guest and choose Teacher Tech Tools.
Tools discussed were Diigo, del.icio.us, and Trailfire.
Diigo has a sticky note feature that is similar to the notes field on del.icio.us.
Trailfire allows students to create a “trail” of resources about a particular topic. Trails can be public or private.
