Monday, January 21, 2013. Thing 4: Photo Sharing, Editing and Fun. On my Ipad I tried working with Aviary. But didn't have the results that I wanted. (I wanted to be able to do slideshows such as the ones you can do on Windows). I am still playing with it as an App, but I like Muzy much better. For my library students I am currently assembling photos for our "Get caught Reading" photo showcase. Here are some of our photos I "pinned" on a corkboard using Muzy. Links to this post.

Sunday, November 20, 2011. Going Global With ePals. While navigating through the ePals. Website, I kept thinking about global collaboration. This resource gives a new meaning to the term "pen pals". In our technologically fueled world this FREE resource puts similar minds together, even while countries apart. And while ePals offers many opportunities for collaboration, I found an useful feature for learning about cultural differences. As a librarian, this feature would be beneficial to assist students wh...
