CEDU 534: Week 3

Week 3 focused on RSS Feeds, Photosharing Sites, Creative Commons, and the video "Education 2050: Neural and Networked". For me, the experience I had in setting up a Flickr account will most benefit me professionally at this time. Photosharing sites are so popular now that I feel they are something I should hit on with my special education students when I am teaching them a unit on "Technology for Real Life". Though everyone else I know has been comfortable with Flickr for quite some time, I had to take the time to stumble through it. I found it easier to locate and upload pictures on my friend's laptop than using my school computer, so the whole process of creating a Flickr account was really very easy. One small step...eventually I will catch up with everyone else. ;)

Don't worry I stumbled my way through Flicker too. I must say that now that I have an understanding it is a actually a cool site. Just curious is it blocked in your school?
