thing 17
Tagging is really pretty cool. I can really see how it will help me in my education career. As a french teacher, I won't be able (most likely) to just walk across the hall and get advice from another french teacher. So, tagging and searching tags will probably be my new best friend in a few years. Seeing as how the tags can be accessed from anywhere, I will be able to easily find and use anything I (or someone else) have tagged. One thing I found was this site that focuses on learning French by way of using catchy songs. I remember when I was in high school French class (and even now) we would listen to songs. At the time, I thought it was just supposed to be a change of pace from the same old lecture. But, hearing the songs and trying to sometimes repeat them helped me remember the language and give me more confidence when speaking. The problem is that I only know of a few songs. Now, I'll be able to use social tagging to help me find about as many songs as I could ever want that range from learning body parts to learning the days of the week. And, if I forget the name of a website (which we all so easily do sometimes) all I have to do is search a tag and there it is so that I'm not wasting valuable class time on a search for something that should always be easily accessible but, for some reason, it isn't.
