thing 3 photo sharing

May 31 Thing 3 photo shooting and editing. 

I read the whole page and had to sit back and think about how I could use photos in the library.  I think it would be a good way to document our progress with 1-1 iPads next year.  So I joined Flickr and added my first photo.  It looked great on my phone.  Not so much on my Surface.  Another thing I didn't care for was creating a yahoo account to be on Flickr and there is a limited number of free photos that you can upload. These are strong drawbacks for using it with students.  I'm still going to have some kind of picture project with the students to show off what we are doing in classes and share with the Board of Ed and parents.

Tumblr is blocked in our school.

I created an account with Snapfish.  I think I may create a calendar.  Wouldn't that be fun for our students? Or not?  Is money an issue here?

Now that was cool!  This is awesome.  I am writing how I got this done so I don't forget.  www.photopin.com.  Do a search.  Select a photo. Save in pictures folder.  Copy credit.  Insert photo and credit in page.

 We could definitely grab photos for our research and also easily give them credit.

PS.  I personally own most of the books in this photo. -Julie
