What seemed a lot of work at first after uploading itunes to my laptop and uploading photos from my phone became a little easier when it was time to upload to my blog. Phew!
I think being able to upload photos onto a blog or wiki would be great for supporting learning in the classroom. Linking information with images is a fantastic way for students to make connections in the brain. Photos can show the sequence of time such as tracking a building being built or a vegetable growing in the garden. This would help students to understand the steps needed for actions of this type to come to ompletion.
An ancient history lesson would be so much more engaging if images of the buildings of Ancient Greece could accompany text. This would ensure the two buffers of the brain are meaningfully connected. In a senior english class, students could take photos of objects that represent them as youth in Australia. All of the photos could be collated to showcase the different views on what it means to be an Australian.
