Zotero

For our EDU 582 course, we learned about a new technology named Zotero. This technology is designed to keep track of the location, citation information, and abstracts of the journals, books, and articles involved in your research.

I have to say that this technology is a great idea, but in actuality, it did not always work out. There were some issues with the "correctness" of the final products that the program would generate for you. I found it easier to write my own references page than to use zotero. I do think, though, that this tool will be useful as I take more and more courses because it will help to store all of the journal articles and book titles I'll use over the years.
