Blog Assignment 2

I tested one of the slideshows from PhotoPeach, and I really enjoyed adding the background music. Rather than choosing a default song, I was able to go to Youtube and find a song and pull it into the slideshow.
On of the things I got very excited about right away was the possible implementation in my classroom.
I have had the worst time in my Studio Art class of getting students to take ownership of their work.  By having them to provide photo documentation of their work in progress and creating a slideshow, I believe they will be more likely to focus on idea development and craftsmanship of their work. This is a great way to get them to hold THEMSELVES accountable for their artwork.  It also ties in the technology they are using more frequently at home and across the curriculum at school.
