Diigo is a very beneficial application to use especially in classes that require a lot of research such as History and English. When conducting research for extensive topics teachers as well as students have to shovel through pages of scholarly articles in order to find evidences for their claims. Diigo would allow them to annotate their findings online and save those annotations any time they want to go back and look at them. In my eyes, this is a much better way to conduct research than printing out hundreds of papers or not being able to highlight sections that you want to include in your paper.
I think that all elements of Bloom's Taxonomy is important. To get students to simply remember information I think repeated uses of Kahoot or flash memory games are a great way to engrain information into a students' head. To get students to understand the information you're giving them it is important to make sure that you go into detail with the lesson. Having students share their understanding of the topic to their peers is another good way to engage if they are making sense out of the information. In history especially to make sure that students are applying their knowledge charts and maps are used. Creating, evaluating, and analyzing can be done in big projects that encompass a whole era rather than one topic. For example, in 6th grade my history teacher assigned us a four part project where we had to create greek baseball cards which explain the goods/goddesses powers, write an essay, build a temple, and create out own tests on greek mythology that other students would then take.
