Social bookmarking does have an application in my classroom. The ways it could benefit me and my students is that I can give them a worksheet with questions and tell the students that they can only use the website that I have in a certain tag subject on my social bookmarking site. Another way that it is a benefit in the classroom is if you show the students how to use it the teacher can go and look for the students social bookmarking site and she/he can see what websites the students book marked for a report or project they are working on. This will allow the teacher to see if they are using creditable sources to find the information for their report or project. If the students are not finding creditable websites then the teacher knows who she/he has to help on their project or report.
Yes, this can help me now as a student because if I am working on a project in the computer lab I do not have to copy and paste the websites URL into a word document and then save it to my hard drive, so I can retrieve the websites in my room on my personal lap top. This lets me not have to worry about having my hard drive to save the websites I have found. Social bookmarking will allow me to get the websites I retrieved for a project on any computer. Social bookmarking will also help me as a student by letting me tag the websites I found and organize the information I need for the project or report I am working on.
