wow, flickr. This website has huge potential both professionally and personally.
I can definitely see myself using this application for personal digital photos. At present I have numerous files containing my digital photos, which no one can see, now that I have learnt about Flickr I will be able to upload my photos for friends and family to view. My photos now will no longer be stored in the darkness of my computer waiting to be viewed.
Professionally, it will give students a chance to shareo take photos that are part of assignments or excursions or more science specific experiments with other students, students friends and families. It will allow others to take a sneek peek at what we have been doing in class and/ or on our excursion. Photos from excursions and significant events at school where alot of pictures are taken can now be put up for others to see.
I love Flickr, I have already posted some of my photos here.I'll have to get back to you with my flickr name. (can't remember off the top of my head). As a PDM teacher, I plan to use this for students to showcase their works, both original and manipulated. It will provide both inspiration and motivation for students. Giving them ideas and being excited about posted their successes. Links could be sent to other schools as a way of sharing what we are all doing.
