Cheese :)

Flickr has been a neat tool for sharing photos in the past. It was tricky to upload the pictures, and the fact that there was a limit dimmed my enthusiasm for the program. Now though, realizing the tagging option and linking capabilities, it just seems like an obvious tool to use.
I like the idea of all the students having their own account simply because I want everyone in my classroom to be able to use what they have learned in the real world. There are other benefits, as personal space, ownership, and responsibility, but to be able to share it at home and maybe use it in their life for a genuine purpose, presentation or otherwise, that would be my ultimate goal.

  1. Anytime a student assignment can have a genuine purpose in his/her own life is a definite benefit!
