This project, again, was a ton of fun. I think this would be a good way for classrooms to have discussions with eachother. In a hostory class I took online, the teacher would often have us read about something and post our comments on a blog, this would be a good way to comment with people in a class about a picture or a written letter or something.

I also think it would be great in a classroom to use as a discussion place, it could give more shy students a way to participate without feeling too uncomfortable! (especially if they can type in comments!)

Online Storybook

I hope this works...I had a lot of problems with panraven. I didn't like that you could not choose the layout of the picture. It also took a long time for the photos to upload. Also, the buttons did not show up whiel editing, so I have to just move the cursor until it made a selecting hand and hope that I was adding the text that I wanted.I don't know if I would use this in younger classes, it is a little complex and I think that there are too many glitches. It might be a fun project for older student, though.

Flickr Slide Show

Created with Admarket's flickrSLiDR.


This was a lot of fun to do! I think I am going to give some family members a link to this blog, so they can see it.
I am not sure how I would use this while teaching though. I guess I could do something like we are doing, and have the children doa sense of place project. It may be fun to have students take cameras with them on a field trip and do a slide show with discriptions of thier field trip.
I think this was fairly easy to use, and I may end up using flickr in the future!
