Delicious and Glogster

Delicious: I enjoyed how easy delicious was to use! I love to be organized and I know that this website could be a valuable resource for me. What I really like is the idea that my bookmarks can be viewed from any computer. I never liked using many bookmarks on my personal computer (unless it was a website that I used A LOT) because it felt like clutter to me. With this, though, I can add websites simply because I think they are cool, and I can look at them later. I think that this website would be very useful for teachers.

Glogster: To me, this website seemed very fun. I can definitely see a lot of uses for it in the classroom, but I see some down falls too. As fun as it is, that might be a distraction for students. There are many choices of elements that the students can use. I can imagine children focusing on their background more than the information. That is why I might suggest using it with older students. This could also be used by the teacher to present information in a fun, original way to the students. This would be a very good tool to use in any classroom!
