Using the Mosaic Maker I created this collage on diversity. My standard I picked for livetext focuses on cultural diversity for 6th grade Social Studies. I found this source very neat in creating a collage that children can physically view and come up with ideas and questions about what is right in front of them. This will definitely be useful for educators. You can take ideas and place them into a collage format to give a more visual perspective. This is a neat way to engage children into today's society and how it is continuously changing. I think that sharing photos online is okay, as long as it is limited to education resources only. Anything can be placed onto the internet without being censored, educators need to be cautious as to what web pages they allow their students to explore on for research purposes. Another way I think this could be useful is at my work. I work at a daycare and we are required to post pictures of diversity within our classrooms, this would be a neat tool to use to create a collage for me.
Ariel, I love your mosaic picture! I think mosaic pictures would make for a great bell ringer journal entry. Students could use different pictures to tell a story. Your picture in particular would make a unique story! I also really like other pictures that you have used throughout your blog!
