MODULE 7

Delicious

This will be useful as (obviously) a way to access my bookmarks wherever I am and whatever computer I'm on.

As far as school is concerned I see three big advantages:

1) It might get me to actually start organising my bookmarks

2) I can bookmark relevant sites for each page of the Stage 6 syllabus for my students. Assuming they join up and join the network they will have access to all the sites I find useful (and I can access those that they feel useful) - it will save emailing them sites continually BUT it also means that they will be more likely to ignore the sites (without email reminders) and that the best TIMES to look at each site won't be flagged by email either. Hmm - have I just talked myself out of this advantage?

3) Most importantly - organising he departments bookmarks - each relevant page can be tagged to a year group and topic. Ideal use for Delicious as far as the department goes. Just need to find the time to actually do it...

Made a post on James Cronin's 'Blog of the Year ' Module 3 Reflection - I'm sure all my followers will rush to read it here.

And this is something I found on Delicious - just replace Twitter with 'Generic Web 2.0 Social Networking Tool' methinks: Is Twitter a Waste of Time?
