Now you're talking! What a blast for English classes. . .I love all those ideas. This is a far cry from your basic "illustration" of a poem, story or such. Of course, I do sense a bit of a problem--would my students try to use all the on line resources and never use their imaginations?
I want them to interact with the literature they read---sometimes I think we make it too easy for them to just download and re use what is already out there. Keeping them from just doing that would be my job as the teacher, right?
I can tell I'm having a "moral dilemma" ~ which I'll just have to get over. . .

What a neat picture. I agree with you on your comments about there alrady being too much out there for students to use and them not using their own imagination. Coming up with the ideas on their own should be the excitement of the whole thing. But, in this "just do enough to get by" world we live in, imagination has gone on the wayside. Boo hoo hoo, Boo hoo hoo
