Maggie Tsai of Diigo.com explains how this “Social Annotation” tool is so very useful to the classroom teacher as well as students. Catch the podcast for our tour.
This video should be a requirement for every educator. Here is an example of how one high school history teacher is using Diigo in his classroom. It will really get you thinking about the possibilities.
