It's really hard to find really good online testing web sites to use with my class. I want teachers to offer online test that generates grades and are easy to use.

Ok my response was wow, design a Comic and  Newspaper card that can be shared on a social network incorporating images and videos in one. I like the newspaper my students can work with the journalism  class on a web based school newspaper (saves paper). It addresses creativity and the use of technology. With the comic my students can do the same integration of images, music and videos to tell stories in a really creative way. I see myself using this more to promote films, and my students to learn how to promote their short films in a really neat way.  The site allows for collaboration which is great.

What is Layers? It's cool and allows for creative research. I can overlay videos, images and texts on a web page, hold a debate or discussion. Which I can use the web site as the background for the topic. Students can do web research create or find a video that supports or is against the web site.  They can then share comments back and forth keeping the original web site in the background as a constant point of reference.  I could even use it with my critical friends or classmates when we're in a group.

I 

I like the ability to create a library of links to videos on video sites like YouTube & Viddler.  The one location to retrieve videos that support a link, topic and tag. I could create a channel of instruction videos for my class built on web research.  This could be linked to Moodle, a blog or Wiki allowing for controlled content and one location. With a Wiki or Moodle videos can create too many pages or pages that are too long.

How can I use Flickr in my class (Film & Video Production)?

Flickr can be used two different ways in my class, first being creating a storyboard or digital story in Flickr students can take picture that support their stories or concepts for projects.

Another way, as students produce their short films they can use Flickr to display production stills (pictures of their production behind the scenes and the actual production) to promote and market their work. As well as, display videos of their dailies.
