An Experience with Multimedia

I had no idea that a site that houses images could be used in such versatile ways both personally and educationally. I love the idea that I can create digital stories, presentations, discussion pieces, learning maps, etc. (so too can my students). And this is yet another tool that has that “interconnection” option with the ability to tag, organize, share, create albums, subscribe to feeds, and blog.

I plan to start using Flickr soon. I have artwork I created in the past and uploading it would be a good way to introduce myself to the application. I will return and update my post as I have more relevant learning to record.

In terms of my work as a teacher-librarian - I think an in-service for teachers would be my first priority. But first, I will need to do more research and gather a portfolio of examples to share with them. This will make my professional development blog so that I have a place to organize my findings and begin preparing the in-service.
