At this moment, I would like to say that I have been learning plenty of useful information from the course. Module 3 provides me with knowledge related to teaching aural/ oral skills, speaking lesson plans, websites to explore, and social bookmarking. In this journal, I would like to reflect on the lesson that I discussed with my teammates about the "Diigo" tool and share my opinion about this tool.
When it comes to "Diigo", this tool has both advantages and disadvantages for users to experience. In terms of advantages, Diigo encourages users to save their favorite links about their work or study. They can take advantage of comments to note down some key point information about the link they have. Besides, this tool is so easy to operate and use with the logical interface; hence people may be confronted with little challenges. On the other hand, there are numerous drawbacks users should take into account before experiencing this. The first negative aspect is the difficulty of signing in. Actually, it requires users a huge amount of time to create a new account with their emails but in the end, it doesn't work. Hence, in order to use ít, they must have an available Google account and sign up again. Another drawback of this is about tags. When the users click on the link, there is nothing appearing in the tag even though the users tag some keywords. Therefore, before using this tool, users should consider both its merits and demerits. From my perspective, I prefer using the bookmark of Google to that of Diigo for two reasons: no requirement for signing in or logging in; just one click to save the link I want.
Moreover, thanks to my group's discussion, I can explore more valuable links of my classmates that support my learners and my lesson. They have shared with me an array of websites that include games, lesson plans, PowerPoint, and book materials such as Yourhomework tool, Beeclass, etc. I am grateful for their sharing because I think that in the future I can use these and lessen the amount of time to find some games or activities that require me to design on my own.
Your reflection on Module 3 is insightful and highlights both the benefits and challenges of using Diigo. It's great to see how you've weighed the pros and cons and found what works best for you. The discussion with your group and the sharing of valuable resources is a testament to the collaborative spirit of the course. Embracing technology in education is indeed crucial, and your openness to exploring new tools and websites will undoubtedly enhance your teaching practice. Keep up the great work!
Trả lờiXóaBefore knowing about Diigo, I aslo use google bookmarking to save my favorite websites or useful links. However, it becomes a long list now, so I used Diigo instead. At least we can use tags in Diigo to categorize learning materials.
