Thing 8 - Getting Creative Using FLICKR


The scrapbooker in me could spend hundreds of hours using the tools available online to manipulate photos. having already purchased my own software I tend to spend my time using the tools in it instead of spending time on the web. If you were looking to do something specific the tools are plentiful.
In terms of use for the classroom, I think I would need to take pictures specific to my curriculum to use. It would be fun to use some of the tools as advanced organizers. The memory game could be used to review equations, lab equipment, important names and experiments. It is very dependant on getting good images to represent the content.
My frustration comes in of course - time in for product out. I have to remember that the first time is time consuming but after that the product can just be tweaked or updated as needed.
