Finding resources is one thing, managing what you find so it can be recovered again later is another thing all together
In this topic we will explore tools for managing online resources. The tools we will use simply bookmark resources where they are on the Internet, saving you time and storage. If you think there is a chance that the resource will not remain, you should download it and manage it in a filing system that you normally use. '

To do

  1. Watch the demo video on how to use Diigo. Create an account on Diigo, join the Composing Educational Resources group, and bookmark that video using the tag word CER09 as well as your own tag words. Find other resources that explain Diigo and bookmark them using the tag word CER09 as well.
  2. Create an account on Youtube and search for videos about Diigo. When you find videos you like, click the link in the bottom left of the video that says "Favorite". When you have favourited a number of videos, view your account (Youtube.com/YOUR USER NAME) and bookmark the webpage to your Diigo account using the tag word CER09
  3. Write a post to your blog that tells about your experience doing these tasks, and describes how you understand Diigo to be useful in your own settings. Tag that blog post to your Diigo account using the tag word CER09.
  4. Join an online meeting (Date TBA) to discuss with other participants your experiences and ideas.
