Lesson Plans Using Flickr
One lesson plan I found by Ekaterina Tolstova from Scridb.com implemented Flickr as a system for learning vocabulary on the elementary level. The learner would search on Flickr for the vocabulary word and try to find images that explains what the word means. I could see Flickr used in a musical education context by sharing images of instruments, musical notes and scales, and video clips of music instruction with a group of classmates. This could be used as a virtual flash card system that could help the students visually identify instruments, and the video feature could allow the students to hear an example of what sound the instrument makes. It could also be used to quiz students by showing them a series of musical modes or scales, and having them identify them visually. This could reinforce concepts and vocabulary learning from the classroom.
