The image generator idea is really great, but for someone who apparently doesn't think fast enough or understand how things work very quickly it is extremely stressful. It took me a really long time to get my image project done and I still don't think that its right. I pasted a picture into a template and have no idea how to manipulate the word bubble that came with the picture so that you can read it in its entirety. It will probably be a snap for the kids to do, but I have to say that I was ready to throw the computer out the window by the end of the evening.
As for Rollyo, what a great idea, but I see some potential issues in this tool.
http://rollyo.com/mscalpel/video_conferencing/
I put together a list of video conferencing/distance learning websites, but when I went to search it I received hits that were not necessarily appropriate to what I was looking for. I believe that one of the sites that I put in was a blog site which means when I type in zoos (for virtual field trips) I am getting hits on the treatment of pandas from Chinese zoos. When selecting resources for the rollyo, you must be very watchful of what websites you are listing, because I can see the kids clicking on sites that you believe are appropriate only to find out that it is a hit that is totally irrelevant.
Other than that everything went just fine. Is anyone else experiencing the same issues or am I the only one.
