Module 1- Symbaloo All Of Your Favorite Websites

For my first blog on a technology tool, I choose to write about the website called symbaloo. You can find this website here: http://www.symbaloo.com/. Symbaloo is a website that you can link all your favorite websites, so that you can find them all in one place. Symbaloo is a place where you can find everything that you need and never have to type in a URL ever again.
Symbaloo can be used in many different ways. The average person can use symbaloo for an easy way to access all of their favorite websites. You can access the bookmarks that you make from any computer, unlike the bookmarks you make on your own personal computer. You can be in a different state than what you live in and log on this site and have every website that you have saved for you to access. Symbaloo is an easy way to organize all your favorite websites. If you are a professional, in your profession you may have to access a lot of websites in a day that are hard to remember, so in your job you can save all the websites you need. In symbaloo you can also have different tabs that you can save, so you can have different pages of categories for all of your websites to help organize all the websites you have.

When you make a symbaloo account, there are websites that have already been saved to help you start. They come with many educational links. Symbaloo can be used for a personal learning network. Symbaloo comes with many websites to help you learn and teach better. Yet, it can also be a place where you can save all of your outside personal learning networks. Symbaloo can be your personal learning environment.

As a teacher Symbaloo can be used in many other ways also. On Symbaloo you can connect with other teachers, and share your websites to help you learn other learning techniques.  Another learning technique teachers can do is share their symbaloo’s with their students so they can access websites they need to for school. It is an easy way that students can go and have the exact website that the teacher wants them to be on. Symbaloo is an easy way to connect your students. Symbaloo is a website that you can use in your classroom that is both beneficial to your students and yourself yet is also helpful to make the classroom flow easier since everything is saved in one place.

Symbaloo is a very helpful website. I just recently found out about it and I have found it very helpful. I now have it as my homepage and I use it as a source to get to all of the websites that I need. Right now being a student I found symbaloo really helpful because it already came with many websites that will help me learn, but it is also a place that I can link other websites that I will be using. In the future I could see symbaloo being very helpful in my classroom. It is a very helpful website that will help me connect with my students.


Symbaloo is a very helpful website that saves links to every website that you need, it is conveniently in one place to make going to many websites easier. It has many useful benefits to anyone who would want to use symbaloo. Over all Symbaloo is an excellent website and I would recommend it for everyone, especially teachers.

  1. Paige, I agree that this could be very useful for saving your bookmarks and making sites available to students. You have a nice description, but it could be based more on your own experiences in using the site. What is it like to add your own sites? How easy is it? What kind of sites did you add? Did you make any categories? Etc?
