Week 7 #17

I found some curriculum ideas on the RAW2.0 wiki that I hope to get the staff involved in (Instead of the usual baby photo display where people try to guess who the baby is, have students/staff create avatars of themselves and have people try to guess who created what to represent themselves. Leslie M. July 2008), this one would make a fun thing to post in the staff lounge. Another one (Avatars: Students sometimes have assignments to create "personality posters" which usually involve some kind of collage of pictures cut from magazines interspersed with words cut out characterizing themselves. Having students create an avatar r would also be an interesting way for students to represent themselves particularly if it is tied into an assignment such as "how do you see yourself in four years" and have them create one avatar representing their "present selves" and one representing their "future selves." Carol H. July 08), the poster thing is done is several classes and when I see all the posterboards and construction paper in the garbage a week later I always roll my eyes, well here is an alternative!

I wonder if there is a way to link the curriculum pages of the wiki directly to the curriculum connection sections of the blog? Hmmmm...

Guess the Avatar! Love it.

Glad that the Wiki is sparking some really usable ideas.
