Using del.icio.us with students in a course

Social bookmarking can be used in a variety of ways to support students taking a course. Here are some helpful links on how to use del.icio.us in education;

Why save web sites to your computer where they can not be accessed by your students? Using a social bookmarking site such as del.icio.us teachers can bookmark web pages to be used in the classroom or for student to reference at home for homework.
