Old school is an excellent point here. If we try to talk to our students about "bookmarking" in their browser, do they feel out of touch with what we're teaching them. If our methods are "old school" how relevant do they find the information we teach them?

traditional library methods have effectively tamed print resources, the digital content residing on more than one billion Web pages is a different beast altogether.

The resource I saved with those tags becomes connected to similarly tagged content on Del.icio.us (or whatever tool you are using). So with a simple search, I can easily locate related content that has been tagged by other users. It’s a homegrown taxonomy for the Web, hence the term “folksonomy.”

In a nutshell, the operating principle behind these concepts is this: if I find something interesting enough to save, odds are good that you will, too. And together, using these tools, we can build comprehensive resource lists much more effectively than any one of us could working alone.

While Del.icio.us is the top dog of social bookmarking, other sites are worth exploring. Diigo is a service that saves a copy of the entire page into your account so if that precious resource disappears tomorrow (behind a subscription firewall, for instance) you still have access to it.

Add Sticky NoteDeveloping self-organizational skills in this world of overwhelming information is key to enhancing your professional and personal learning practice. And the good news is, with tags and folksonomies, we’re all in this together.

My point exactly. If we teach students this skill, they can carry it not only into their personal lives, but further into their professional lives. This is Selber's "functional literacy."

Enter social bookmarking, tagging, and folksonomies. In a nutshell, the operating principle behind these concepts is this: if I find something interesting enough to save, odds are good that you will, too. And together, using these tools, we can build comprehensive resource lists much more effectively than any one of us could working alone. Exemplifying the wisdom of crowds, these applications are fast becoming an important resource for relevant information.

how might this work in schools? One obvious application is to have collaborative groups, classrooms, or even entire districts decide on a unique tag that everyone can use when they bookmark something of interest. Take the AP calculus class of Darren Kuropatwa in Winnepeg, for instance (apcalc06.blogspot.com)

At the University of Pennsylvania Library, there’s the “Penn Tags” program (tags.library.upenn.edu). It allows Penn students to create “projects” and collaboratively save links, like the nearly 300 that are listed under the title “1935–1945 Films, Philadelphia Film History.” Imagine the possibilities.

Now, how might this work in schools? One obvious application is to have collaborative groups, classrooms, or even entire districts decide on a unique tag that everyone can use when they bookmark something of interest. Take the AP calculus class of Darren Kuropatwa in Winnepeg, for instance (apcalc06.blogspot.com). Anytime his students find an interesting and useful site about calculus, they bookmark it at Del.icio.us with the tag “apcalc06.” So not only are they collecting sites for themselves, they are collaboratively building a classroom resource.
