I "putzed" around at Flickr and was really impressed with the organization of photos and the ease of placing them on my Blog! I compared my "old way" of finding an image.... Dogpile search engine... and actually found more images there. I'm guessing you need to get good at refining your search @ Flickr to get bettter results.
I like knowing what's out there and how far I can "raise the bar" for my student's blogs!

Most students regardless of age still enjoy a " gold star" for excellent work on an assignment, project or test. This is easy in my "land classes"...I simply use the " star stickers". I thought I'd play around with a way to do this in my online classes. Think of the possibilities.... colors, animation....maybe a talking star..... hum...

Back in AZ...


Well... I never stepped off the boat to do the "23 things" while I was at the lake.... I did manage to take a few pictures and capture some moments on video. Hope I can play with the "23 things" before school starts!
