Peggy GeorgeExcellent blog post and compilation of Diigo uses for classroom teachers by Miguel Guhlin. Ideas for classroom use are shared on the Diigo group organized by Cliff Mims. "Why would teachers/ learners use Diigo?"

Claire HertzClif Mims has been having a fascinating conversation on "Why would teachers/ learners use Diigo?" There have been quite a few posts. If you're on Diigo and not a part of that conversation, I urge you to join the conversation...drop me an email or contact me via Diigo and I'll invite you in!
In the meantime, here are some of the suggestions folks have shared and I note them here to summarize the ideas for myself...I hope the summary is useful to you:
* bookmarking and organization, lesson planning, share stuff with kids, online discussions, share information among teachers--team, grade level, school or district wide
* student collaboration for discovering information
* using the comment ability to analyze and evaluate websites
* [Diigo] is a cognitive way for students to interact with text and helps them think about what they are reading. Rather than just cutting and pasting I am asking them to consider the text and the meaning of the text. Being selective and researching skills are so important and will move the research agenda further foward.
* Consolidation of bookmarks residing on different computers, sites, etc. Sharing of bookmarks as well as ideas, plans, best practices, class cross communication. Feeling like a supporting, valuable, important part of a technological community.
* Given a set of criteria, students (from elem to Univ) could demonstrate whether or not they have the critical thinking and information evaluation skills necessary to navigate and use the web successfully
* teachers with multiple sections and/or preps can easily customize information/ resources/ activities using Diigo's groups, lists, and conversations. This can all even be done at the time that a bookmark is made (I could send the bookmark to my 7th grade math group/ list, my pre-algebra group/ list, but not my 7th grade social studies group)
* Enhance professional learning communities...we could share web resources by using the cool highlighter feature or sticky notes and extend our chat about how -

Diigo is very useful for allowing peer reviews of assignments.
Students place the assignment on the web and other students critique
it. This removes the need for specialised peer review modules in some
Learning Management Systems.

And that's only the first page...although I've had to copy-n-paste this
content into Thingamablog (Thingamablog doesn't make it easy to
copy-n-paste rich text format in), the rest of you can just go to the
page--and if you have a Diigo account--see highlights, then send those
to yourself. Although Vicki's
written about this, here's what it looks like in screenshots:
