PhotoPeach! (a fun tool using photos)

PhotoPeach! http://photopeach.com is one of my new favorite sites!

I’ve been quite busy learning through participation in online courses exploring the use of images — and exploring the pedagogy and andragogy of using various tools in the classroom/with learners completing projects.

Here’s a PhotoPeach I created about items I like to collect.

and here’s a “spiral” of the images, another great PhotoPeach feature!

What do you think of the idea of assigning learners to photograph items that they collect?

And then what? Directives for the comments on the photos could be to include certain grammar structures, or to use a minimum of three adjectives per photo? Then asking them to comment on each others’ creations?

To incorporate voice, a parallel project in Voicethread (http://voicethread.com) might be interesting as well.

Thoughts? Comments? Reactions?

Please post a reply; thanks!
