I "discovered" a great tool in class this week- Diigo! (http://diigo.com) Diigo allows you to interactively bookmark, highlight and share websites with others. Since everything is in the cloud, your bookmarks are saved forever, and you can share things with whoever you want!
Here's an example of what a website highlighted with Diigo looks like.
I think Diigo could be incredibly useful in an art classroom. Being able to share digital content in which I can highlight the most important information for students is so great. If I use a "flipped classroom" model, I can teach students a technique in class and give them websites that explain the art theory or give art history background at home. That way, class time can be reserved for art making. And extra information can serve as reinforcement of art concepts.
