Thing 6

Uploading photos to Flickr from my documents is easy. However, I need an upgrade to upload photos from iphoto. I enjoyed looking at the pictures collected under Newington23, and under Newington 23 things. Sherry is an amazing photographer. There is a great shot of Hammonasset beach in Madison CT that others should check out. I enjoyed creating a montage, and it was easy. We could use Flickr after a field trip. It would be fun to create a montage of the ROPE field trips and then maybe have a poster made. I bet this would be an interesting tool for students to use. An issue that could come up would be concerns related to permission for using photos of students. It might be nice though, for parents to be able to select a photo of their child and print it. It would be an easy way to share the photos of kids taken on the field trips, if appropriate permission can be obtained.

  1. I also had to upgrade my version of iphoto -- now that I have, it is incredibly easy to upload.

  2. I think we, as a system, will need to revisit permissions to reflect what is happening on the Internet - this might be the year!
