Thing #17

For this thing, I decided to look at a few of the bookmarks, but my favorite one that I found was Glogster. It is a website that you can go to and make your own poster with your own ideas, words, pictures, fonts, etc! I found that Delicious.com is a pretty neat website filled with great resources for anyone, not just a teacher. However, if you are a teacher, you can find plenty of great ideas on here. Instead of going into a search engine and finding more misses than hits, this will be almost dead on and give more options geared toward what it is you're looking for. Each thing on the website has been given multiple tags to make finding them or sorting through them much easier. Teachers can and should take advantage of social bookmarking sites like this one because it makes things simpler (and that's what we all want, right?) I think that education revolves around a lot of peer interaction and sites like this makes that happen easier. This is a good tool for both teachers and students.
