Teacher Technology Standards - MTTS Standard V ISTE - Standards 1, 2 & 3


 * **Instructional Uses:** Diigo may be used as an online repository for useful internet sites and articles. Like other social bookmarking sites, it may be used by an individual or as an environment for group members to share resources with each other. It can be extremely useful for students who are using the internet to investigate a topic as they collect relevant sources. ||  ||
 * **How I might use this tool in instruction:** In a class where a research presentation or research paper was an intended outcome, I would have students create their own Diigo site but also a shared group space for them to collaborate and evaluate potential sources. They would make me a non-contributing member to each of their sites so that I could monitor the types of sources they were including and so that I could provide feedback and support during their research. ||  ||
