Thing #6: Exploring Mashups and Third Party Sites



The mosaic maker site is really amazing. I can build a mosaic in seconds just by typing in a tag name. I created a leaf mosaic and will insert it into my plant study powerpoint lesson for visual interest. It is easy to spend an insane amount of time on flicker and mashups sites. If only I had more time...
The trading card maker would be great for review card games. I could upload images of various cell parts, for example and create cards for review. Or, even better, the students could create their own!
I love the big huge labs site. the possibilites are endless with the calendar maker, jigsaw puzzle maker, badge maker, etc...
