Below you’ll find an aggregation of the latest links from the ECAWA community for our social bookmarking experiment.
To contribute to this list you’ll need to sign up for a del.icio.us account (this was the unanimous preference in our poll you can see opposite).
To take part, when bookmarking a website complete these two steps: make the title of your bookmark descriptive and tag the website with ‘ECAWA’ and the learning area using our ECAWA ‘folksonomy‘ into the tag field.
Never used social bookmarking before? Give it a try and see if you enjoy the benefits other educators have observed. It takes 10 minutes to set-up. These tutorials/how-to’s will help get you started:
Please feel free to ask questions or leave suggestions in the comments section at the bottom of the page.
To start contributing your favourite websites to the rest of the community tag this very ECAWA website using deli.cio.us bookmarks and copy and paste this list of tags into the “tag” field:
ECAWA arts english science SandE TandE languages HealthPe AITcos CompSciencecos accounting arttee biology chemistry economics geography englishlittee historytee humanbiology indonesian japanese teemath music physics primary secondary tafe research
Why does this matter? Because next time you only have to type in the first couple of letters of a tag and any tags you have used previously will pop up to make tagging faster and easier.
Based on the Curriculum Framework this folksonomy will be used to categorise the internet links educators come across please and will appear below. After you have tagged the website appropriately (we are trusting that people will do so) it will appear in both the sidebar and on this page.
As you will see there are already hundreds of links tagged by the generous ECAWA community in del.icio.us or diigo (please sync to del.icio.us first) social bookmarking services. Here you will find the page we are pulling the main RSS feed from.
