I know in the past I have written about Symbaloo and how I have used it for various things but I again want to rave on it a little.
I have been using Symbaloo as an embedded part of my library website as a tool for my students to access. I have found it offers them so much information in a little space and it has been so helpful to the kids. I love the fact that I can make color coded categories and that I can link to other Symbaloo . It's wonderful to not have to re-invent the wheel if you need to do some additions. You just make a box and link it to another Symbaloo you already have done.
I think having access to it makes the library page a little more user friendly. Kids just remember what color you told them to look at and they go to that section to get their information. It has helped make research a breeze for the students. I think my teacher appreciate it as well since they can direct the kids to the section they want.
Teachers are also finding ease of use with Symbaloo. Many of them are picking the sites they want students to access and creating a Symbaloo they use for that component of class. It works wonderfully.
Again, Symbaloo is so user friendly and easy to work with, it is definitely worth looking into for any content area.
