Thing # 17

I have never heard of social bookmarking, it is a simple and easy to use resource for teachers or anyone for that matter.  Similar to bookmarking things in your computer Delicious allows you to tag different websites so that you can go back and find them anytime.   Unlike on your computer you can access your chosen bookmarks from any computer.  Teachers do a lot of work at home and in the classroom, bookmarking allows you to find new web 2.0 tools on the Internet anywhere and share with your class.  Delicious also displays the websites that has been tagged by other and their descriptive labels placed by those users.  Teachers can organize the websites in one place so that they are easy and quick the access in case plan A doesn't work out.  I found a great site that offers educational video's, the plagiarism video stuck out to me because in upper elementary grades students need to understand plagiarism so they can prevent it.  This would be a great video to show students during writing.  Teachers are always looking for effective or useful ways to educate their students and by bookmarking these website teachers will always have access to them.  Teachers can also bookmark websites that offer guidance and assistance with classroom management, technology use, going green, saving money, learning styles, and many more problems that teachers deal with every day.
