As soon as you said “if you don’t happen to be on your regular computer, how do you even remember all the sites you’ve bookmarked?” I was sold. Do you know how many times I have found something useful at home and had to e-mail a link to myself just so I could use it in class? It’s ridiculous. This is amazing. I don’t think I will ever be this organized again. This organizational system is fool proof; there is no way you could lose a valuable website because of the multiple tags you can place on it, which I recommend. The more tags you have, the easier it is to find next year when you are teaching habitats again and can’t find your saved documents because you labeled them something that was relevant at the time, but makes no sense now (not like I’m speaking from experience or anything, ha ha!).
Anyway, I find this to be more useful for me as a teacher than for my first graders. However, I do have some high kids that are currently working on a research project. I suppose I could put websites that I have approved and that are kid friendly on my delicious account so that they could do a modified search for information instead of being flooded with a bunch of inappropriate junk that they can’t even read.
