I've never used Diigo before but now that I've learned about it in class I do enjoy it a lot! One thing I learned in Diigo is that it can highlight and make little notes on whichever website I choose. This way I can go back and read only what I highlighted that was important. This can be useful in the classroom with team members because each member of the team can highlight and leave notes on a specific section of the website where they can give their opinion as well. This can help in my individual professional effort by if I'm un sure of something before hand I can make little notes on the website to help remind me of certain things.
Bloom's taxonomy is a set of hierarchal models used to classify educational learning objectives into different levels of specificity and complexity. I can use this in Powerpoint which is a tool that can be used by anyone. For example if there is a presentation about different types of flowers I could use powerpoint to create my work. This would also allow me to remember the information and apply the basic understanding to myself and others.
Teacher professional development and technology go together like peanut butter and jelly. The world as it is a technology growing world so there is no doubt that technology would be used in education. One website that I found was Ed Tech Magazine it focuses on educational technology to improve teaching and learning processes.
