Thing 7 Share photos

Think of ways you may be able to use Flickr in the classroom or in your work and share your ideas. What issues might you face?
There is a group called Tell a story in 5 frames (visual storytelling) with over 9,000 members. It is rich for ideas. This form of visual story telling would be a great assignment.

I'm pretty sure our school's filter won't allow access to Flickr at school. We would have to use the district's version of picture sharing, which can't come close to the vast network and collaboration that is available on Flickr.
Another issue might be that some parents don't allow their student's image to be used, so we would have to make sure if images are posted, permission has been granted for all students involved.
As other have said, copyright is an issue. The issue of copyright and plagiarism is always an important lesson to teach to our students. They won't think about it unless they are instructed in the reasons why it is important to consider how we can or cannot use other people's words, and images. There isn't enough emphasis on giving credit where credit is due, and citing one's sources.
