Eva D'Amico's List: Diigo

• helps teachers when they take classes down to the computer lab
• teachers can link their web pages to the same Diigo Group, so students can easily find the pages again from home, and parents can see what web sites the class has been using.
• compile resources in a group.
• • widget: congegno
• (http://www.diigo.com/list/lburkhalter/wikispaces-resources). This link to wikispaces demonstrates how Diigo links and webslides can be added to a wiki. (https://tech101.wikispaces.com/Wikis). This also models for teachers how they can use Diigo to share resources with students.
• I use Diigo webslides to put together readings for blog responses eg. (http://slides.diigo.com/list/gebertoia/facebook-tos). My students use Diigo groups (http://groups.diigo.com/group/ssis_9) as part of their research cycle for certain types of blog posts (http://teachnbabble.com/cycle/Blogging_at_SSIS.html)
• They use different colored highlights to highlight text for key ideas and for new vocabulary words. These words are then added to a class dictionary.
• widget
• highlighting and annotating the critical passages;
• post annotated and summarized articles to the class Diigo page relating to the current topics studied in class.
• My group is semi-public, and can be viewed at http://groups.diigo.com/group/zis-economics
  
• A presentation I gave at the recent Council for Economic Education in Washington DC on the use of Web 2.0 tools in the Econ classroom can be downloaded at http://welkerswikinomics.com/downloads/Econtech.pptx
• Experimenting with using Diigo to teach grammar, literary devices, etc. Students highlight parts of speech in a text, annotate, and then check and comment on each others' wo
• To read and annotate poetry together. Then I export the annotations to keep on file as a record of who said what.
  Here's a video:
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pR5yogCmkA&feature=PlayList&p=A87718D8F7EDA454&index=0&playnext=1
• They search for information via Netvibes and Diigo
  2- They bookmark, comment and highlight sites with Diigo
  3- They make the synthesis in a wiki
  
• the list feature
• The highlight and sticky note features in Diigo give them the same visual experience they get when they add margin notes to their novels, handwritten notes and text books.
• When my students create lists in Diigo, I have them share their lists with me via Twitter
• if I could just get them to think critically about tagging web sites without my help, they'd be well on their way to building their own personal universities of learning.
• graduate level to collect the links to papers I want them to read as well as resources to use in their classrooms.
• create a topic, save some relevant articles into a diigo group and then let students find the most important infomration there.
• Have undergrad students read/respond to articles and to each other.
• I used Diigo to give private feedback on blogposts in an assignment - private highlights and comments, shared only with the blog creator.
• They have become active as opposed to passive learners
• 1. Use groups for collaborative research.
  2. Use lists for opening class and for sending to students before class as a preview of what we will be doing in class. (I teach froshcomp at university--at risk kids.)
  3. Use annotation function to summarize articles (annotate, extract, edit, auto-blog)
• Use annotation function to summarize articles (annotate, extract, edit, auto-blog)

• I created a group in Diigo for each class, based on a research topic. The students had 2 lessons to search out as much important information they could, highlight, sticky note and comment on the pages. They then had some time to comment back and answer questions, or elaborate on the annotations of others. This work was then used for the next lesson in which they needed to find "nuggets" of information in the bookmarked, annotated pages of their group and post these to Twitter in 140 words of less, synthesizing their information and understanding. We created a hashtag for them to use in tweeting and can now access the info when doing their note cards and citations in Noodlbib. I also backed the twitter work up just in case in a Google doc.

• knowledge.
• community,
• collect and store knowledge efficiently, and then refined the platform to foster collaboration in learning.
• to study and research as one would in a library – by taking pertinent pieces of the knowledge puzzle and putting them where they are accessible, functional and more easily utilized.
• Diigo’s Collaborative Research Platform – This is the premise on which Diigo was built, a platform for gathering, using and sharing information. Not just any information, but highly filtered and relevant information beyond the weightiness of full Web pages and extraneous data. Diigo allows users to add, gather or extract from pages of information and then share or work with others to further refine knowledge. Users can define their content on a group, community and ultimatly on a personal level via this even more enhanced UI.
• content is perhaps more social

• publish a bookmark straight to your blog
• organise your bookmarks into lists
• create your own groups
• publish a bookmark to a blog
• could require your students to join a particular group and bookmark useful sites there, and have that published once a week, say. So their weekly homework would be to check the blog every week to see what's new, and to explore the freshly-bookmarked sites.
• ability to create lists
• tool for their own online reading
• collaborative projects

• “ricerca caccia al tesoro” l’insegnante assegna una ricerca agli studenti. L’obiettivo è quello di trovare in rete le risposte ad una serie di domande su un tema, tipo caccia al tesoro. Una volta trovati i siti gli studenti potranno aggiungere la pagina trovata allo spazio diigo di classe e commentarla opportunamente. Tanto più la ricerca proporrà un tema ampio, tanto più gli studenti potranno trovare il materiale originale ed inatteso, non previsto inizialmente dal docente.

  Questo modello può essere esteso, come ha suggerito un collega, per aggiungere percorsi alternativi di approfondimento ad una lezione.
• “Scrittura a più voci”
• laboratorio di scrittura
• insegnamento della lingua italiana.

• Il docente assegna un tema iniziando un racconto sul proprio blog o sul wiki di classe. Gli studenti, a turno, aggiungono pezzi di racconto usando il proprio blog ed usano diigo per collegare il proprio brano al racconto scritto dagli altri.

  Diigo servirà così sia come “collante” per ricostruire la storia completa che come utile strumento per commentare o integrare i lavoro dei compagni.
