Nickerson's Thoughts Thing #9


I went to sillywebcam.com and was playing around with the different generators, I think the one I like the most was the fire generator. With this generator everytime you moved it was if you had flames coming out of your skin, but the one I decided upon using was the Andy Warhol inspired one. I visited many sites but some of them would not save the images. The sillywebcam.com would not let me save the image either so I decided to use my printscreen function which worked. I think that this would be an interesting site to have students get onto and take a picture of themselves to put on a bulletin board.

Nickerson's Thoughts Thing #8



I have been a user of flickr for quite a while and did not know anything of the Mashups. I thought it would be interesting to put all of the places I have ever been to on a map to see what areas I have spent the most time in. I think this would be an interesting tool to have students make a map of how many different states or countries that they have visited. As a class we could have a discussion on how people and thier living conditions differ from other states or countries. As we are not the only country in the world students should understand that the education they recieve is not something to take for granted.
