Through Big Huge Labs, I used the Motivator to create the above image. Football is one of my passions, and I follow the NFL religiously. One thing I love to do is scan through photos for hilarious looking shots, and Sam Bradford (as seen above) has some of my favorite looks, especially while throwing the ball. He always manages an interesting look on his face, as noted by the picture. 10 points to the person who correctly identifies the movie quote on which the above Motivator is based.
For the Motivator, students can find a picture that is representative of someone or something from a class book, story, or poem. Then, a particular quotation can be across the bottom for a simple, creative homework assignment. A similar path but using a mosaic tool can be used as students find several pictures representative of a story or poem as a whole. A short presentation would accompany the final product for the student to explain his or her picture choices. Many creative uses can come from pictures and quotations, but there is quite a difference between academic relevance and simple fun. As a result, the teacher needs to ensure that the project is in compliance with academic standards.
