Jeff Utecht of The Thinking Stick, points to a great Firefox extension, TextMarker. TextMarker allows you to highlight various sections of text on a web page and then copy the various pieces of text to the clipboard for pasting into another document. The pasted text also includes the attribution information from the page where it was copied. A student reading an article can highlight selected paragraphs while reading the article and then when finished, copy the highlighted sections with one action.
