Add interest with Glass Giant

There are some fun online sign generators available.  A great one to play with is Glass Giant.  You simply type in the message you want displayed and the site adds it to an image.  I like to use it to create images to use in presentations but you could also make images for work sheets, virtual classrooms or decorate your classroom walls.  Here are a few example.

Photo! 3D Screensaver

This is a fun tool I stumbled upon.  I have been thinking about how to create a virtual art gallery, so I did some research and came across this cool application.

I found it at http://pho.to/p3d-platform/ it is a site where you can edit your photos online, however, it also provides some great ways to present your photos.

It offers free downloads to create Photo! 3D Album, 3D Screensaver and photo web album.  It creates a realistic 3D world which displays images. You move around the environment automatically and view the different images.

Create presentations online by creating a widget. Choose the template from slideshow, 3D album or a 3D gallery. You can upload your own images, add images from sites or flickr. The site creates the widget and provides you with an embed code.


The screensaver in particular, is a great way for students to display their images, use at the end of a school year, at a subject selection evening or parent/teacher event to showcase the school events. There are many environments to choose from.  It is also fun to use at home and display your family photos.

I came across this Prezi by Maria Andersen.  I love using games to stimulate learning, this presentation explains it well.
