I had some fun with Big Huge Lab's create your own jigsaw puzzle. You can upload a photo from your computer, and it will turn it into a jigsaw puzzle. There is a way that you can have it ordered and delievered to you, so it could be a great game or learning activity in the classroom. After you make the puzzle, you can have it framed on the wall! I was able to create it in the Big Huge Lab's website, but it let me link the photo to Flickr so I could save it, and copy the link. I would use this site, among the others, for personal as well as for the classroom. If students were learning about a certain place or animal, it could be searched online in a photo, put to a puzzle, and then the students could create their masterpiece! Even if it were to spell out a word or a phrase, it would still be a great way for them to learn.
I like sharing photos online; I do it more with friends or family, not necessarily to the public. However, if it were for educational purposes then I would definately open up my pages to those seeking advice or for myself. These sites are a great way to share information and they can be great learning techniques.
