Thing #17~Amy Rutledge

Thing #17 is about tagging and social bookmarking.  This will be a great tool as a teacher. Using the delicious resources allows me to organize my regular bookmark pages into a more efficient filing systems based on a system of tags. I will know be able to find what I am looking for, not by paging through my hundreds of favorite pages, but by looking for a specific tag and clicking on it. I can use this to set up a profile where parents/students can find resources for homework or extra help. I can also use it to collaborate with my peers in an effort to provide as much current and interesting material as possible by networking through the site. Overall, I think it will be yet another great asset to me when I begin teaching.
