Session 7

Session 7/Module 7 delicious.com
While I did this session a few weeks ago I have struggled to actually post my response to the topic covered. We were introduced to delicious.com as a method of managing links. I can see that this may be a useful way to manage links for a class group and fellow staff/colleagues.
It could be used in the classroom to manage links as suggested by teachers and/or students so that access can be open to all class members/staff on any computer (not just one machine that has bookmarks).
I can see that delicious.com would be an effective way of managing links with tags
To save links, highlight url open up delicious.com save link, links can be saved privately or publicly.
The benefits of this tool in teaching is it provides an opportunity or easy way to access resources or it could be a way of students doing their bibliography.
Since doing this session I have aimed to ‘use’ delicious.com myself in an attempt to manage my own links, I have not yet done so, part of this problem probably stems from the fact that the nature of my teaching role at the moment does not exactly provide the opportunity or rather need to do so.
