I can't beleive it has taken me so long to get back and do my reflection. I was hoping that I would see a response from someone on the Thing 7 blog, about not getting our pictures to post in the RESA23 Flickr list. But there is no response that I've seen. Anyway, I put my picture there, and I can see it on my account, I just don't see it with the others. But I notice there hasn't been anymore added since I tried to add, there's been something like 86 pictures. Is there, perhaps, a limit?
But back to the reflection question, how would I use Flickr in my classroom? I can't. It is a site blocked, and I don't see myself fighting for it to get unblocked. While it is a neat tool, I'm not sure I see an absolute educational need for it. If kids want to electronically show us a picture, they can throw it in a power point, that works well.

One way to use Flickr images without school access would be to download them outside of school and then make the images available to students for specific projects.
As for the RESA23 Flickr search issue, we have learned that a person has to upload at least five images (and then wait for several days usually) before the images will show up in search results.
So do you want us to load more images so we can count this thing?
