Review of classmate post by Mel Rainey
Carbonmade.com gives an artist the experience of an online social experience. Each student of mine is able to sign up for a free account and begin to build a portfolio of images and artwork they have created. Along with the portfolio students can comment and blog about other artwork that they have seen on line or through this site.Using the site is made simple for anyone to use, only requirement is that you have a steady Internet connection for downloading. The tools are easy to learn and offer a variety of portfolio options from movies to photography. Setting up an account and monitoring it is also easy students and myself can set the web page for specific viewing and sharing methods.

I commented on your blog Mel. I think this is a good idea for students to collect their work over time and save their images in a virtual file. The site seems to be user friendly. It is compares with writing portfolios. Students can see improvements in their work over a period of time. They can choose which images they would like to share.
ReplyDeleteGood research, Mel.
