Social Bookmarking Website: Diigo

Classroom collaboration is an area that benefits directly from today's Internet experience in that students can develop their potential for learning by becoming more actively involved. Indeed, they can learn to approach and solve problems by collaborating with other students and their teachers. Social bookmarking websites give them opportunities to discover and organize information.

While many social bookmarking sites offer some collaboration opportunities, Diigo (Digest of Internet Information, Groups and Other stuff) combines a user-friendly social platform with bookmarking features and functions that make it useful for the classroom, giving instructors tools for setting up groups of students, highlighting key information, and commenting.

WebQuest

WebQuest are an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all of the information that learners work with comes from the web. Sources are pre-selected by the teacher, who usually selects the resources students can use ahead of time, which takes the focus off of finding information and moves it to how that information is used and interpreted. WebQuests specifically ask students to be critical of the sources and analyze them based on what they already know, or to use them in clever and creative ways. The vast majority of WebQuest assignments are group projects where individuals are given specific tasks and roles to complete.
