Thing #6 - Mashups

This is a great tool and fun to do. I can see how this would be very useful to students who are studying maps and geography. Trading cards will be useful in all content areas but would especially useful in geography when combined with map study.

Creating the Flickr mosaic was interesting. Students will love creating these as there are pictures on almost any subject. Looking throught the files will be educational and fun, then incorporating these mosaics into their presentation will provide a positive experience as they present or display their work to the class.

Wow do I agree. What fun you could have with both the trading cards and mosaics. I really think that I need to practice with both of these this summer if I am going to try to do these as projects this next year.
