Tool #5: Social Bookarking

I have used Delicious before and loved it, but I decided to use Diigo for this tool since I hadn't heard of it. I'm a fan. I love the idea of annotating web pages and sharing that with my students.

In July I took a course on Teaching East Asian Literature in the High School and I need to write a lesson plan to fulfill my course requirement. My lesson plan is on "The Second Bakery Attack" by Haruki Murakami. I need background resources on the author as well as the work, so I searched "Murakami".

Here are a couple of my favorites:

At first I searched generally with "Japanese Literature" and then I decided to search "Murakami", which worked out quite well.

I'd like to use this to share resources with my students and with colleagues. I'd like to show my students my annotations, and I'd like to see their annotations. I'm a huge fan of this tool.
