Photoprompts: resource for online ice breakers



Thanks to John Spencer @edrethink for his Tweet today that pointed me to http://photoprompts.tumblr.com.  This site is a great resource of visual, thought-provoking prompts that can be used as ice-breakers in online classes.  The images are already attributed and can be uploaded into a VoiceThread or embedded in an LMS for student blogs or discussion forum. Lots of great ways to use these stimulating prompts to foster student-student interaction.

Just for the record, my three songs would be: John Lennon's Imagine, The Pretender's Brass in Pocket, and Louis Armstrong's What a Wonderful World. And what would yours be?
