I have written about PhotoStory 3 for PC No.95 as a very easy and effective way for students to tell their stories with digital still images. PhotoPeach is probably easier, as it involves 4 steps to make a slideshow with digital images and text captions. PhotoPeach is a social software, open source application held out in the ether. However the coding can be used to embed the created slideshows in wikis, blogs and web pages. I particulary like PhotoPeach because of its ease of use and it epitimises all those values that sit alomg side the curriculum especially in the vision and effective e-learning pedagogy. The students can share their learning with their global community, and we as teachers can use ICT to supplement traditional teaching. PhotoPaech takes the images contrusts the slideshow and the author is required to order the pictures and write captions. the technology is the tools supporting the students learning.How easy is that?
the downside..... you do have to add the music track and it plays and plays and plays. Turn your sound off!
Sharing a good book on PhotoPeach
