Diigo is a terrific on-line platform that may be used to create, save and share annotated  bibliographies of any topic, drawing on the multimedia resources of the web.  For a seminar on Israeli life-writing, students created a collaborative bibliography to help them fill in their own gaps in historical background, and follow-up threads of personal interest to them in the assigned readings.
Use Google Maps to create a sense of space and place while studying urban fiction like, for example, Henry Roth's classic New York novel, Call it Sleep (1934).
