(Post #2) Flickr in the classroom

Flickr in classroom events:

Flickr brings the class together to allow for an interactive resource that allows students to illustrate what they cannot describe clearly.  It also becomes an interactive device for an instructor to create scaffolding devices to use.

One possible lesson: 
Students to show pictures of places they have been throughout the summer.   Then using a tool such as pimpampum students can create a story book of the events that took place over their summer.  Possible modifications for this lesson is a lesson on where students want to go or if the lesson is content based have the students create a flip book of what they have learned.


Here is an example of the outcome using a prepared slide show “Scotland by TeachingEnglish”~.  If this was a content lesson on Scotland I would go through and describe each picture to the class.
allowing for me to scaffold what is being taught.  This slide is one example of an imae I would use in my own object to allow me describe to area of Scotland.
