Week 3 R/D4

Week 3 Reflection #3- What could be the value in photo sharing in a educational activity? What is concerning about student use of photo sharing software? What is the great benefit of the of this service?
There are opportunities to add a visual component to a lesson. After learning about a particular topic students can be assigned to gather photos and in groups put together images that explain and expand on a topic. These images can further be put into a powerpoint and presented to the class.
This software could be concerning in the hands of the students because the photos someone gathers could be inappropriate and through the sharing feature could be spread out of control to the detriment of the photo subject. Sometimes photos are clues to parents that have been separated from their children by court order. It could lead to a possible abduction.
