1. At first using Diigo was a little confusing, but after using it, it became easy to understand. Diigo is a very useful software, as I was able to annotate and connect with my peers, without having to be with them. I really enjoyed being able to see what my peers thought about the reading as well. It was a way to have a discussion with my peers even though we were not in the same setting together. The only thing I didn't like about it, was how its a little hard to use. You have to use Chrome and you have to install it to the search engine.
2. Blogging is something that is new to me and until this class I did not have any experience working with it. Blogging is a place to share recollect your thoughts and experiences and share them with others around. When sharing them, it creates a sense of community as you may have similar experiences or completely different ones. This allows people to grow and take in the information and adapt it to their personal experience. I am not really a fan of blogging but I do see the positive outcomes of blogging.
3. A tool that I have found very useful not only in the classroom but in everyday teaching is Google Drive. Google Drive is a very easy to use application that allows you to share just about anything with other people. This could be with other teachers, students, or parents. Another great thing is that Google Drive can be access from just about anywhere where there is internet access. It is also free to use and there is no fee that has to be paid. I will use this tool for sure in my classroom.
