It's funny how we really don't have any idea the impact we have on students. When I was in the classroom, I taught ELL high school, and all I had were the regular ed textbooks for Social Studies. These were way too difficult for the students, so I was constantly scrambling to find other resources - many on the internet - for my students to read. I spent so much time trying to prepare effective lesson plans, yet I was feeling like I just wasn't reaching so many of the kids. Then this year my daughter met a former student of mine at UWM and when he found out who she was, he told her I'd had such a big effect on his life and his decision to go to college. I was shocked at this since I felt like I was constantly running on a treadmill and never getting anywhere! It was so great to hear that my efforts were worthwhile at least for that student. I'm sure all of us are impacting our students' lives in positive ways in the LMC also. LMS's today sure seem different than the school librarian I had. I think her name was Mrs. Shush?!

Some of these quizzes would be fun and inspiring possibly to do with students. I agree with Jill. Some of these quizzes would be fun and inspiring possibly to do with students.

I've never thought to actually do this with students...it would serve to show them that even though most won't be famous, they'll have a huge impact on others' lives.

I like the idea that you can incorporate multiple media formats in one presentation tool. The visual representation is unique and appealing. What a great tool to encourage creativity! I hope it's not difficult to use. Keith, I’m looking forward to exploring Museum Box also. I like the idea that you can incorporate multiple media formats in one presentation tool.
