Del.icio.us

I started using del.icio.us in my two AP Calculus classrooms last week and the results have been grand. My two AP Calc classes have been tagging websites that they think are valuable to class with “stjcalc” along with whatever tags are applicable. You can view all of the pages they have tagged right here.

In order to set this up each student needed to create a free Del.icio.us account and then start “tagging” sites they come across. You can tag sites with the post feature directly on the site or use a browser plugin like this one. I’m really excited to see their pool of sites grow. It’s already become a great resource for my students, and anyone else looking for calculus materials through del.icio.us!

As an added bonus students can start using del.icio.us to tage all of the sites that they would normally just bookmark on their local computer. What’s great about del.icio.us is that they will be able to access their bookmarks on any internet-connected computer.
