Thing #13

I used ImageChef to make this license plate. This is the name of the football team that I coach. I will show this site to my daughter because she is always on the computer working on her Myspace. I think she would like this, too. I am not sure how I would use this in my classroom, but maybe someone has some ideas to share with me.

Thing #11


I decided to look up pictures on Japan. I teach World Geography and it is always good for the students to see actual pictures from the area. Flickr would be a site they could use to make a presentation over the country we are studying. This picture is of Mount Fuji and it was taken by Samurai Shiatsu.Link

Thing #10

Creative Commons is a way to give permission to people so that they can use your pictures. It is like copyright in a way and is confusing to understand. It is good to know that I won't be in trouble for using these pictures from the internet.

Thing #12 - Animoto

These are the credits for the pictures from Flickr that I used to make the slideshow. It was easy except for the linking of all the pictures. That was time consuming.
