Making students own curation

"Curator: Erin Gleeson "

I had two eye-opening experiences this week, both really got me thinking about online sharing, curation of digital versus "real" work (E-portfolios) , and overall student learning, both in terms of motivation for and expressions of. The first was the grade 10 MYP Personal Project exhibition, the second my daughter, Kaia's, student-led conference for her PYP Kindergarten class.

I do see that it can be used to easily create Internet Scavenger Hunts and Webquests. It lets you create a "molecule" filled with "atoms" (the call each topic a molecule and atoms the different parts of the collection). You can insert a website and notes into each molecule, which will also show a screenshot or even a video. The task for each can also be described. And it's easy to move the "molecules" around. And, then, best of all, you can embed your whole "molecule" wherever you want, including on a class blog or website.
