Module 7

Social bookmarking with delicious is a great tool. It allows you to;

* Keep links to your favourite articles, blogs, music, restaurant reviews, and more on Delicious and access them from any computer on the web.

* Share favourites with friends, family, and colleagues.

* Discover new things that others have found.

* Organisie your bookmarks through tagging them with keywords.

This has huge benefits in a large school such as ours, especially when you do not have access to the same computer.
We are presently trying to organize our favourite websites for each grade which the staff are going to present at the end of the year. So many website links are changing each year and of course teachers also change grade. What a great way to advise staff not only on how to save their favourite websites but to share these links with their grade partners. The use of tags also allows staff to store/share links by subjects, which enables easy access when teachers are programming. So much for hard copies and folders! If we want to encourage busy teachers to integrate ICT daily into the classroom, this is a fantastic tool to have.
