Blog Journal 5


  • My initial experience with Diigo was good, but I still get a little confused. Although, it is very useful in many ways. It is a very powerful research tool. It makes it easy to take notes directly on a website and share to the class what notes we have taken, and also be able to take notes on different peoples websites. This could be very useful for not forgetting about websites and your thoughts on each website. I like how you can add notes on every website, but I don't like how I have to re upload Diigo on the desktop every time I need it.
  • I really enjoy blogging. Blogging in this class is very useful for me because it gives me time to think back on what I have learned in class, and express how I feel about it in my blog. I enjoy expressing my own opinions and sharing them. It lets me reflect on paper. There's nothing about blogging that I have come across and not enjoyed because it is pretty much straight forward. I like that it can also be made individualistic. I learned that it can be shared to the public and my classmates could make comments on it as well. This could be a very useful too in the future to remember the thoughts, struggles, and likes/dislikes for different programs and topics.
  • Web 2.0 is the second generation of the world wide web. There are tools included and these can be used to create and share products and projects. A tool that can be useful as a teacher would be instagram. Instagram is not a tool we covered in class, but it is a tool I have for my own self. Instagram could be useful in the classroom if we were to make an account as a teacher and follow all different teacher based accounts.

  1. Hi Olivia, I like that you mentioned Instagram, I didn't even think of that as a Web 2.0 tool. It can totally be used as an educational account and a way to connect with teachers.
