Thing #17

I recently joined Delicious and enjoyed exploring the awesome website. I typed educational technology in the search bar and got a lot of results. I was able to see the comments that other people had made for the bookmarks on the right-hand side of the page, and I was able to see the tags that they had added to the bookmarks.

The Delicious website is very useful to anyone looking for something specific. All you have to do is type in the search term that you are looking for and voila! Either they have it or they don't. The tags on the websites were very helpful when I was looking for things. I really enjoyed looking around the site at all of the other awesome websites that I was not aware of before. I loved that the whole thing was very easy to use!

Delicious would be great to use as a resource for the classroom! There are so many websites especially geared towards education on the site. For example, there was a website that had videos for teachers and videos of lesson plans on the site. There was another website that had games and interactive activities for the students as well. Teachers can take advantage of the social bookmarking websites by sharing with other teachers the websites that they have found useful in the classroom and for the classroom. By sharing the helpful resources for the students' sake, teachers can help education to flourish further.
