Social Bookmarking

I believe social bookmarking is a fabulous thing for all teachers to use. I think it would be very helpful for students to be able to see helpful links to something they are trying to find. Each student could have their own, with each tag as a subject or class they are taking. They could bookmark helpful websites that have either been useful for homework, study tips, or even research topics. Also, if they teacher had one that students were able to see it could help students on tests or quizzes. It could be helpful for students to see other students bookmarks or tags. Also, it could be beneficial in group work. The students could find different websites for their topic or their part of the project and each student could see what the other is looking at. It could definitely make a group project go much smoother. I believe this is something not many teachers have knowledge of. I think it would be a wonderful thing for teachers to learn in an inservice or even by other teachers telling them!
