During my internship, I loved taking pictures of the children during my lesson plans to document their learning experiences. This is also a great way to build a classroom community, as well as communicating with parents about what their children are accomplishing. The effects available on Picnik enable editing and altering of scenery, the color distribution, just to name a few. This would also be interesting to see how the children would edit the photos of themselves. This would also aid the children in the abilities to recall past experiences.
Glogster could also serve a variety of purposes in my future classroom. It is very easy and fun to create different posters. This is a great alternative to traditional posters for projects and presentations, for students as well as teachers. This would also serve as a great communication tool, and social media network within our classroom; which is another great way to build a positive classroom community.
I really enjoyed both of these tools and can definitely see myself utilizing them in my future classroom.
