This is a presentation I gave at the fall 2009 APC Conference at Elgin Community College and at the spring 2009 ITBE Conference.

1. Social Bookmarking Presented by Marcia Luptak and Holly Lawyer APC Fall Conference 2009

2. Today’s Agenda: Give an overview of one bookmarking site, Delicious, and its features. Give an example of how and why Delicious is useful in the classroom. Participants will be shown how to set up their own Delicious bookmarking website.

3. What is Social Bookmarking?

4. An Overview of Delicious

14. Social Bookmarking in the Classroom

22. Students can access the website from anywhere, so they can access the websites from home for extra practice.

23. Students can access the website anytime, so they do not have to be enrolled in the course to use the sites. This encourages lifelong learning.

24. The teacher can update the website at any time and all students who access the website can benefit from the updates.
