FURL Review

Furl features give us a big picture of all the things that we can do while furling, like saving documents, sharing and searching many other web pages. Also, we can add comments and categorize and date them. With this new side, I learn that we have a lot of options to keep informed. This is a web site that offers a lot of practical options that we can apply to our teaching method. We can find the most popular information around, organize it, and even better we can share with others our selected web pages adding more information. We can play with it and still learning.

As it its application, for example, if I have n number of students and we are making a research about x theme, every one can share others' favorite pages. Teachers consequently can have access to monitor student interaction and progress, if you are set up correctly.

The nice advantage of this is that we can learn a lot and use this web as a nice research feedback. The bad things that I found are that students can be very distracted while using it, there is a lot of bad information avaialble, and at the last minute they could copy others information.

Well, I imagine that becoming a teacher I must be quick in learning how to use this new technology, and detect the bad information that students can bring. I am pretty sure it will be very useful. Already, I signed on in the furl site. That was fun and very educational.
