What Teachers Like About Diigo
- Allows teachers to collect websites for a particular use and classroom theme and can be accessed or shared with a larger community of students or teachers.
- Consider using a school Diigo account to house bookmarked sites for the entire school and then they can be sorted and used by multiple teachers
- Create notes and highlight information in the Diigo sites
- Tag the sites-- and create your own personal database of web materials
- Creates a shared collaborative community of resources available ANYWHERE not just at school. You can access them at home as well
- If enough people are using it and sharing it it can act as a community "reader" of information
- It easily bypasses filters of most school districts
