More DEN Academic Excursion Stuff…
By tnturner on Jul 23, 2007 in Software Review, Tech Tools
I’ve been very bad about putting my thoughts together since I returned home last Thursday. The good news is, I can count down on one hand the number of days I have to work still at the golf course. I will be very pleased when my last weekend day comes and goes. My wife keeps reminding me, “three more to go, you can do it!” I just hope so. So we shall see. I just get very tired over the weekend and the last thing on my mind is to sit down and type up a post, that will be somewhat coherent and intellectual.
One of the things shared at the DEN was FD’s Flickrtoys. Over to the left here is a nice Motivational image tool that you can use uploaded images; flickr or photobucket images; or supply a URL of an image to create any motivational message. Lovely way to use as a ‘hook’ in a lesson, or to get your students to get creative in making some sort of caption for an image.
FD’s Flickrtoys has a wide range of toys to choose from; including: a badge maker, a calendar maker, a mosaic maker, movie poster maker, or a magazine cover maker. These are just to name a few. LOVELY way to incorporate several different types of tech tools into one project.

Great words Tom! I know what you mean about getting things done since the cruise – I mean institute.
That’s a good sign – maybe.
if you had had your Mac, you could have created a blog in iWeb and just uploaded it when you had Internet Connection.
Oh wait – you don’t have a mac, yet.
Great review though. I’m not a Flick’r user, but that’s pretty cool! Saw the slideshow from Jennifer Dorman’s site. Neat!
