Here are step-by-step instructions for how to upload photos to a flickr account from a moble phone. Great for asking students to generate content via their cell phones.
This is great for all students, but pay particular attention to the section on learning. I am going to highlight the section on "Thinking like a genius."
"Thomas Edison held 1,093 patents. He guaranteed productivity by giving himself and his assistants idea quotas. In a study of 2,036 scientists throughout history, Dean Keith Simonton of the University of California at Davis found that the most respected scientists produced not only great works, but also many "bad" ones. They weren't afraid to fail, or to produce mediocre in order to arrive at excellence."
