Why would teachers use Diigo? | Diigo

  • Teams and grade level teacher groups, a.k.a. Professional Learning Communities, are something our district has been trying to foster. We have started a grassroots movement to use a wiki to share lesson plans. Finding time to train teachers that are interested in learning to use the wiki is a real challenge. Time is money! I am not sure how Diigo would or could do it, but if it have a lesson plan wiki that could help teachers have one tool to learn it might help. Online discussions are dangerous if you have teachers that lack interpersonal skills or have a conflict with another teacher.

What other advertisement do you think we could write for here? Write an ad for a virtue or trait that you think is important. For example - “Here’s a news flash for every person in Canada. It’s about a sensational, new kind of personality that will make you the envy of all those around you. It’s call trustworthiness. Why with just a pinch of this great product….” They now have a writing assignment to go along with the recording of the radio play.
  • You can ask questions about the site, or have students carry on conversations about the text. Perhaps about the validity of some information.
