As a teacher I will
be able to use social bookmarking and tagging when it comes to finding lesson
plans or strategies that I need to revert back to. This tool will also come in handy when it
comes to collaborating with other colleagues. I will definitely use Delicious to
bookmark my favorite websites that will help me as a teacher.
Tagging is what you
do after you save a link to your collection. You tag it with one or more
keywords to describe it. Multiple people can use the same words, so you can
search for everything tagged with "technology education" or
"elementary education" and get the collection of websites of
everything that anyone has found using that tag.
Social bookmarking
allows you to maintain a collection of useful links online. It is very similar to the bookmarks or
favorites in your browser, but they are also accessible to others because you
post it on your own page.
