Today I worked on Rollyo. I have to admit that given the name I wondered what type of tool this could be. After exploring some of the existing rolls, I began to understand the potential of this site as a teaching/reference tool. I explored several of the existing rolls, including those about "quotes". Often when I am writing grants or just want to highlight a particular theme in my writing I look for appropriate quotes that will elucidate my ideas the rollyo quotes site is an excellent place to start in looking for an appropriate quote. It will also be a place where I will send my high school students when they are trying to track down a quote or if they are looking for one to highlight a particular issue.
When I return to school next week I intend to create a couple of rolls dealing with some of the subjects that we most often research. This may help my students with their research and save me time in the long run.
