Diigo Assignment

Social bookmarking is honestly something that I have never heard of before. I am an avid user of Google Chrome and add sites to my tool bar that I think will be helpful when I am teaching and for my personal use.  I am currently using the following add ons: myCampus FSU, Gmail, WVDE Webmail, and Diigo.  I find the tool bar helpful because I cannot always remember websites that I have visited. I am excited to start using Diigo and the Diigo add on to my tool bar. I think that this will be helpful when it comes to researching. Diigo always has advantages because it allows you to interact with others following the same topics. 


Diigo follows NETS Standard: 3-Model Digital-Age Work & Learning

Teachers exhibit knowledge, skills, and work processes representative of an innovative professional in a global and digital society. Teachers:

	demonstrate fluency in technology systems and the transfer of current knowledge to new technologies and situations
	collaborate with students, peers, parents, and community members using digital tools and resources to support student success and innovation.
	communicate relevant information and ideas effectively to students, parents, and peers using a variety of digital-age media and formats.
	model and facilitate effective use of current and emerging digital tools to locate, analyze, evaluate, and use information resources to support research and learning. I believe that using Diigo most closely relates to this standard because Diigo allows you to collaborate with others, helps you become fluent in the different uses for technology, and gives you a place to bookmark all of your own resources to aid you in research and learning.
