Symbaloo is a great free tool you can use to create multiple tables or tiles to organise web links of one sort or another. It thus becomes a visual curation tool or a visual bookmarking tool. Symbaloo can be found at <a href="http://www.symbalooedu.com/" title="http://www.symbalooedu.com/">http://www.symbalooedu.com/</a> if you are a teacher. by joining here you can enrol your students as well. Symbaloo creates ‘webmixes’ which are basically a collection of your bookmarks. It also has already created tiles of popular websites so that if you want to use those to save time they are there for you. My webmix I decided to create a Symbaloo to use as an index page for 30 posts I had created on our SchoolNet blog under the headings of “30 Days of Webtools #1…” etc. Here is a Slideshare of the process outlining the steps I used. <iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="356" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" mozallowfullscreen="mozallowfullscreen" scrolling="no" src="http://www.slideshare.net/slideshow/embed_code/15917146" style="border-bottom: #ccc 0px solid; border-left: #ccc 1px solid; border-right: #ccc 1px solid; border-top: #ccc 1px solid; margin-bottom: 5px;" webkitallowfullscreen="webkitallowfullscreen" width="427"> </iframe> <div style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/fionabeal/get-started-with-symbaloo" target="_blank" title="Get started with Symbaloo">Get started with Symbaloo</a> from <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/fionabeal" target="_blank">Fiona Beal</a> </div> Here is my completed Symbaloo This is my completed Symbaloo.

It can be used really well with webquests.  4) As a teacher you can save your favourite tools so that they are always handy for you to use. 5) You can use it like I did as an Index post for a number of blog posts you have created around a topic.  6) I love the way this teacher uses Symbaloo in his kindergarden class.  <a href="http://mattbgomez.com/just-dance-video-webmix/" title="http://mattbgomez.com/just-dance-video-webmix/">http://mattbgomez.com/just-dance-video-webmix/</a> 7) Listen to this Grade 7 student from the post  <a href="http://fishingforedtech.com/2012/03/01/4-ways-to-use-symbalooedu/" title="http://fishingforedtech.com/2012/03/01/4-ways-to-use-symbalooedu/">http://fishingforedtech.com/2012/03/01/4-ways-to-use-symbalooedu/</a> showing what she does with Symbaloo <iframe allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/YEls3tq5wIY" width="420"></iframe> </div></div>
