It’s FINALLY up!🎉

I don’t have much yet (just 3 resources), but you know I’ll be adding more and more as we wind the school year down & I have a break from school.🌞

JUST BECAUSE it’s on TpT and meant for classrooms doesn’t mean college RA’s can’t use it! 🎓

My door decs that I have up so far cut down on prep time, the cutting, the recutting, the mess, the everything! Buy, download, print, cut, put names on, (laminate?), and slap those suckers up for everyone to see. The best part? You can use the file again and again and again.

(Please do not share the file with anyone if purchased. Have them purchase their own, or purchase multiple licenses at once for a discount!)

Check out my TPT store below👇🏻 If you don’t buy, share!! If you do buy, don’t forget to leave a review! It gets YOU points and helps ME grow and fine tune what my buyers want. 

Much love and thanks, Sweet Shenanigans🍭🍀

Social Bookmarking using Diigo

This week's adventure in social bookmarking brought me to Diigo.com. With this site users are able to store and share links, pictures, pdfs, and notes. When posting a resource to Diigo, users can tag the resource or share it to a group. Posts are easily searchable and popular tags are listed on the user’s homepage. Users are also able to create an outline page of selected resources and share those resources via a web link.  

The first step I took with social bookmarking using Diigo was cleaning up my bookmarks bar. I have folders of spreadsheets and articles that make a rather complicated drop-down tree. Remembering what folder each resource is housed in often wastes more time that the original intent of bookmarking was intended to lessen. I started with a very general tag of #classroomresources, but as your library grows you realize the need for more specificity in your tagging. I then progressed to areas that are hot topics of conversation such as #engagement, #proximity, and #readingonline. I found it much easier remembering a tag than figuring out what folder this resource was nested under.  

Once I felt comfortable using Diigo myself, I introduced it to my colleague as a way for us to share resources between the two of us. This is where tags had to start being standardized. For instance, i used the tag readingonline and she post to onlinereading. Between us we had to come to an agreement about what tags we were going to use, because it became very obvious that we would lose resources as we built out our library. The two of us had been using Google Classroom to disseminate information and resources to faculty members, but we found the searchable interface to be easier to operate. Granted, you can use control+F for searching Google Classroom, but not all of our faculty is aware of this feature. 

I created a campus group to utilize Diigo at an organizational level with some positive results. As with any technology some faculty members latched on to the collaborative nature of the platform sharing related articles on topics that were created in the group, but the surprising use that we didn’t foresee was using Diigo for a running library of unblocked YouTube resources. Like most districts we have a content filter called GoGuardian. In the past when we approved a site for use and it was unblocked in the filter, we added it to a spreadsheet. This sheet got pretty huge over the years and it became more difficult to go back and update the spreadsheet with more specific searchable items (ie. course, topic, etc.). Simply adding the #unblocked to a Youtube video that was shared with our campus group started an easy way to update these resources and allowed teachers to pull from resources their colleagues had already found. Then, teachers were able to go and add their own tags where they could add the course, unit, or grade level they were using the resource in (ie. algebra1, thegildedage, 12thgrade). 

I think the big advantage of social bookmarking is the collaboration that you get users to participate in, because it makes the resources easier to find if users participate in adding tags and specificity. As someone who is pushing a lot of content out to masses of teachers, I know that I can never truly check every box and get each post in exactly the right spot for each content level to have perfect access to it, but having faculty in on the process starts to build a culture of sharing. We expect teachers to take a step back and not do all of the thinking for their students, so social bookmarking on a platform like Diigo can help model the crowd sourcing of ideas that teachers should be nurturing in the classroom.
