Blog #6


I have enjoyed using Diigo so far. It was hard to get used to at first, but the more I use it the more I understand how it works and how to navigate it. It is unlike any other website I have used for a class, so it is good that I am branching out and learning more.

It is a easy way to convey information to a classroom, especially since some students learn better when they hear it from someone else, not their teacher. It is a great way to shake up a lesson and make it exciting. Youtube is one of my favorite Web 2.0 resources because it is easy to use and very entertaining.

As a teacher, I am going to teach the kids what it means to steal someone’s content and how to properly go about using other people’s work. I will make sure it is a priority of mine to set an example by creating a lot of my own materials so that I myself am not breaking any copyright laws.  Technology is something that does a lot of good, but also a lot of harm. Two things that come to mind are  academic dishonesty and cyberbullying. I have first hand experience with both. In high school, teachers made it very easy to cheat on assignments because they...
