Weekly Reflection 5: Digital Curation

As as teacher, but also as an inhabitant of the modern world, I am going to want to be able to draw on resources quickly. In the past, I have used browser bookmarks to keep track of thing, and the nice thing about that is bookmarks can be imported across browsers and synchronized across devices using the same browser. However, that only connects you to your files if you keep your files online. I would prefer to not have to rely solely on google drive for file management, especially for once I start writing lesson plans and improving them from year to year.

I am interested in the Obsidian app and will give it a try. I am imagining using it to organize a linked collection of old lesson and unit plans. One could get really into it, and link lessons between grades based on how they develop ideas from year to year.

Once I have tried that out a bit, I will try to add some example material to this post.
