Welcome!

Welcome to Teacher Web Tools! This blog is going to explore classroom uses for Web 2.0 technology, and there are some great resources out there. Let's start with Delicious, since I have other Web 2.0 applications saved in my Delicious account for you.

Delicious is a social bookmarking site. You can create a free account, and then start saving bookmarks. The great thing about Delicious, is that since your bookmarks are stored online, you can access them from any computer. You have the ability to make your bookmarks public or private, and you can even search other users' public bookmarks!

So how do I use Delicious in teaching? Well, I went through and saved some Web 2.0 resources to my Delicious account to share with you. I tagged them all with the descriptor Web2.0.They are public and all in one place for your reference.

You could use Delicious in a similar way with your students. If you want students to research a topic online, you can preselect the websites that you want them to use. Simply save all the websites to Delicious with the same tag and give the link to your students. You could even do this to generate a list of resources for your students to use for extra help or studying purposes.
