Homework #2

Guidelines:

• You will be using Diigo as a tool to collaboratively read online articles assigned to your group, so make sure you sign-in to your Diigo account before you begin your assigned readings!

• 'Diigo' the articles in any way you like, and respond to our questions (posted as yellow sticky notes Unable to render embedded object: File (Picture 1.png) not found. close the articles' titles) for each article.  If you do not see any sticky notes on your article, try "Refreshing" your webpage - this may take 2 or 3 refreshes (Diigo is sometimes inconsistent).

• Please share to our "KMD2003" Diigo Group when saving any sticky notes.

• Tip: In order to view all highlights/annotations for bookmarks on our KMD2003 Diigo group's webpage, be sure to select the "Best for Browsing" icon in the top right corner of the page.  Here's a screen shot to show you what we mean: Unable to render embedded object: File (Picture 3.png) not found.
