Thinkfinity.org offers a rich variety of online lesson plans, online manipulatives or interactive tools, and content. But how can you easily manage and share these resources with your students and colleagues? Learn how to use a social bookmarking tool like Diigo.com–or Del.icio.us–to create audio narrated slide shows, add comments, and post comments online.

and not having got involved with Diigo, other than signing up, I initially skipped over it. Today, as I’m in the middle of collecting resources and writing activities for next term’s Science unit on Human Physiology & Disease, it had a bit more relevance.

So I went to Thinkfinity.org and used their search tools to see what was available and hey presto, thanks to one of their partners, ScienceNetLinks,

I have bookmarked some very extensive E-Sheets; created a list for my class and converted it into a slideset, which I can publish to my wiki on our SharePoint Portal. As a first go, I’m pretty happy with this……. just need to add some of my own stuff now.

I’ll resist the addition of voice instructions, but I dare say that others with more cultured speak, may get right into it.So now I’ll add some addition materials into the slideset and that will present high quality learning materials to my students, in a way I hadn’t thought of.

Next I think I’ll build some resources for other subject areas to show them what Diigo can do for them. There are tutorials provided on Miguel’s wiki site ….go look.

So thanks Miguel for writing so much, so often and for sharing.
