Teaching Creativity with Technology

I finally paid attention to those ads on the side of Facebook. You know, all those ones that are telling you to cartoon yourself? I actually found a site that is a little bit cooler than that even. BeFunky.com lets you creatively customize photos of yourself through colors and photo effects. Your options go way beyond cartoons. I'm going to have my students get a little creative online and have fun expressing themselves through this website.

  3. I honestly thought this was a picture from an outdoors magazine. It took me a second to realize you weren't selling Joe Camals. Are you deep in the Columbian Jungle? End transmission.
