Thing 8: Digital Curation Tools

For this lesson I read several articles and explored a few different tools on curation. I have heard of some of these tools before, but I hadn't thought of them in this way. For example, I love the idea of using Pinterest in the classroom. This is such a great way to curate resources for students in one place. I also think it's easy to navigate, so they would find success with it. I explored Diigo and I think it's a good concept, but probably more effective for older students. I also tried using Padet. I think this would be a good tool for students to collect ideas on a topic. For example, if the class had to respond to a text they could add their thoughts to the Padlet page as well as read the feedback of their peers. There are a lot of options here! I think the most important takeaway is that all of these outlets will increase engagement with our students!
