I was psyched when I learned about Flickr and definitely see myself using in my personal life with my family and in my classroom. At the end of the school year parents and teaches put together a yearbook and I think using Flickr could be very beneficial. I also like the idea that as an educator what a great way" to capture daily events or highlights and then easily share with parents, community and colleagues." I have a place in my classroom that I call," Room 15's Fridge" and it is a place where students post their work so colleagues and other friends can see their school work and they are very proud seeing their own work on display- Flickr could so the exact same thing but online and I think that is really neat. As it is now, my students are better using technology than I am so I could definitely use it with their expertise for students .
I think the ending in this chapter sums it up well," Flickr is a great tool for introducing students not only to digital images and publishing, but also to the social conversations and collaborative learning opportunities that the web now offers.: Looking forward to exploring FLICKR!
