Web 2.0 Tool #1: PhotoPeach

PhotoPeach

Description: PhotoPeach is a picture sharing site that allows users to create interactive photo albums. The free version of this site allows users to upload 30 pictures, but with a paid membership, users can upload an unlimited number of pictures. Adding text to photos and music to the slideshow is quick and easy to do. The site comes with music options available. The text features are minimal, and it does not offer many options to move text around. The highlight of this website is being able to add multiple choice quiz questions to any picture. The slideshow pauses and gives students five seconds to click on their chosen answer. PhotoPeach then dings if students are correct or buzzes and shows the correct answer if students have chosen the wrong one. The uses of this software are endless. I chose to create a review slideshow of geometry terms. After a few review slides, students are able to answer a few multiple choice questions to help test their knowledge. Unfortunately, PhotoPeach does not have the ability to keep records of quiz answers given. Overall, this is a great way to put together a short slideshow presentation of different photos.
