Check out this fantastic photo I found in flickr. The one thing I love about flickr is that photography is celebrated. It's great to see people are still out there taking photos.
Flickr is a great way for students to keep photos and a great resource to access. Part of the learning process is making them aware of what is available for their use. They may use Flickr in a class lead project but also in other assessments. The fact that Flickr is free from copyright infringement as long as the images are referenced - actually Flickr may be a good starting point to discuss copyright with the class.
Flickr is another tool to engage students in a lesson as described in Dimension 1 - Attitudes and Perceptions (Marzano & Pickering et al, 1997).
