Diigo so far has been a great tool and resource to use to share links and web resources. Diigo has been also a great tool to use when to look up other resources. With Diigo you can look for references using several different tags, separating them using quotations. Once you have found a resource that has been started that is relevant to you, you can see what others have posted or commented that stood out about the site. All of these points that I have covered is the reason that Diigo would be and effective and efficient for team members, classmates in a group. Diigo allows for users to create groups.

With my EME Twitter account I have been exploring other accounts that pertain to teaching and working with children, since I am majoring in family and child science.

These teacher sites allows for individuals to go on the school website to gather more information on the teachers, rather than just information on the school. For the purpose of this blog I went on to the website of Oak Ridge Elementary school in Tallahassee, FL, since I work there after school. Oak Ridge Elementary has many links to different teachers. Each teacher’s has a welcome page, a meet the teacher, student resources, announcements, assignments, important documents and a class calendar. Although Oak Ridge Elementary has these links available, no teacher has any information on their page. For instance, , many of my students are students in Ms. Parramore’e 2nd grade class.

Attached is a link to the page and a screenshot. https://www.leonschools.net/Page/9754 I...
