Week 2 was good for me.
The discussion on Bubbleshare and other resources of the like has motivated me to take the plunge and actually do something with the pile of maxed out memory sticks I have at home! This week I started taking pictures of my students and I am going to teach myself and then teach my Communications class how to get pictures from a memory stick onto the computer and then some options of what to do with them. (Since I am an EEN teacher, I have the flexibility with a small class to work as many practical/life skills activities into my curriculum as possible.)
I also enjoyed the discussion and demonstration of on-line quizzes. My plan is to put together a quiz for my resume unit within the next week. Based on our classroom discussion, I think I will give ClassMarker a whirl.
And last, but definitely not least, Facebook! If it hadn't been a requirement of class, it wouldn't have happened....and dare I say - after putting up such a fuss - I love it!

Depending on your curriculum, this link might be useful. http://bighugelabs.com/flickr/magazine.php
It allows you to put together a magazine cover with a picture. I've used it with various levels of students, and we've uploaded a student picture. One teacher asked students to design a magazine cover with words and an image that represents themselves.
Rosco, so many good ideas. I remember having to teach my mom how to do this. We have has little technology sessions to make sure she is up on things. Students might enjoy writing a creative story based upon their pictures. So many fun things to do, Great Idea!
I'm glad you are on Facebook now. It so fun but such a time sucker... watch out so you don't become a Facebook stalker! He He!
