=Session Description: Learn how social bookmarking can benefit your students as well as yourself as a teacher. Save bookmarks and be able to access them anywhere there is an internet connection. Tag your bookmarks to make them easy to find for your students during a research project or for you to use as instruction. Participants will look at a social bookmarking tool and how it can be used effectively in the classroom as well as professionally for resources. = = June 17, 2010 Instructor: Kristen Henning = = henninkr@sgasd.org =
