These are just a sample of my personal photography
I have never used Flickr before but I do like it! As a future art teacher I can see many uses for this site in my classroom. I could ask the students to all create their own accounts and give photography assignments. I could ask the students to post their own work to the site. Another option would be I could have a class account and post the top three pieces of work or just post every one's work so that the parents could access it from home. I will also keep my personal account and post photos of my artwork. Students can access this to see examples of my work. Students could also use this site for research and inspiration.
The only other photo sharing site I have used is Instagram. I love this site too. It is an app on my iphone and it allows you to follow others and view their photos and post your own. You can also take photos through this site and it has tools that help you alter your photos.
Photography is a passion of mine and though it may be difficult to teach if the school I am in has to access to cameras and photo equipment, I believe this site will get the students excited about their own photography.
Check out the website I posted under my thing # 8 blog. I think you will get a kick out it!
ReplyDeleteWell I think we used the same site for Thing 8! haha. I posted Thing 8 this morning and just got around to looking at comments. Went to your page and realized we used the same site. Great minds think alike!
