Module 7

Delicious was quite intriguing and has the potential for allowing greater access for students to share resources amongst themselves.It is also a powerful tool for teachers in that they can share and gain access to each others resources. What a great idea! This also allows us to better organise our own resources and materials.
The idea of social bookmarking is therefore a valuable concept and application as it allows you to bookmark web addresses/pages that you would like to remember for future reference from any computer. Teachers are then able to follow your tags. You, in turn, are also able to follow others using networks.
Tagging is also an advantage as it allows you to 'tag' web pages using keywords that are important to the related website. All this is achievable using 'Delicious'. Only thing is that you need to set up yet another user account using the search engine, Yahoo.
