MyStickies

MyStickies is a tool that allows users to mark-up any Web page with a virtual sticky note. After installing the extension, users press the Alt key on their computer and drag on the browser screen to create a new sticky note. Accumulated notes are stored in the user's account page with a link back to the originating web pages. A foreign language instructor could create a single account in MyStickies and send students to different foreign language newspapers or online publications. Students could then use MyStickies to translate the written foreign language into English. Finally, the teacher could access all student notes via the account page, and as long as students sign their notes, assess their individual performance.
