I think that students would enjoy
utilizing some of the Flickr mashups for various learning activities because
they are very visually interesting and relatively simple to use. I really like the apps that involve mapping
and geography. The ability to easily
insert a picture that serves as a graphic representation of a certain
geographic area is a great learning tool.
I found that in order to utilize these tools more easily or at all for
that matter, you really do need to set up an actual Flickr account. I have mine set up now and will be using it
both professionally and personally from here on out. Thing 8 has served as another booster rocket propelling
me out into the information highway.
After
creating my Flickr account, I utilized the Jigsaw mashup by Big Huge Labs to
create a jigsaw puzzle of a skyline shot of Las Vegas.
