Nishant Mehta (inishant)'s Public Profile in the Diigo Community

I'm a middle school history teacher at a private school in New York City. I'm interested primarily in adolescent education and how best to reach (and teach) this age group.

I am interested in My favorite music are All types. Movies: Braveheart,Live Free or Die Hard,Notting Hill,French Kiss,The Kill Bill Series,Pulp Fiction. TV: House,Lost,Grey's Anatomy,Dancing with the Stars,Friends. Books: The Namesake,The Kite Runner,Lincoln's Greatest Speech,Finding the Heart of the Child.

I use Diigo because I'm a tech fanboy and love experimenting with newer technologies, both for personal use as well as in my classroom. I've used del.icio.us in my teaching before, but Diigo allows more flexibility and makes bookmarking actually fun and useful!
