Module 4:

Flickr! Although I am not as into photos as when my children were young, I can immediately see a use I will employ at the first opportunity! Photos on school excursions! Some students have trouble absorbing all the information presented on the day. The resulting worksheet/assignment can be enhanced by using photos to jog the memory, clarify information, indeed, use in their presentation.

Creative commons could be a very useful tool for our artistic students to share their talents.

I was recently invited to a celebration where the family provided photos of the guest of honour in many social settings that included many guests. This was quietly presented on a large tv screen in the background. It ran all afternoon, with many guests stopping for different moments to enjoy, many memories were discussed, shared and enjoyed. Would this idea be good for school open nights for incoming families? Would it enhance other occasions where those families of the school community are invited for a showcase night? It would highlight the strengths and opportunities of a school. Great for student morale?
