Tagging, the next classroom tool
eSN has this article entitled “For some educators, tagging is ‘it’” that explores issues on tagging services, and the use of it for education. Read the article to get the full picture.
If you would like to explore some tagging sites, Del.icio.us and Flickr are two great examples to start with. Just type in something that comes to your mind in the “discover favourites” or “find a photo of” box, you’ll begin to see the wonders of tagging. And perhaps then we can start to think how we can integrate it into our teaching and learning processes 🙂
