MIXBOOK
I found this fabulous site to do a scrapbook online, which was perfect for a spanish 11 project I had in mind. In Spanish 11 students need to use preterite vs. imperfect and what better way to have them do this than to have them write about their childhood.
www.mixbook.com was easy to use and the students really enjoyed doing a project about their childhood. It's also good for those students who may not be so artistic. Overall the students loved working on this project and reminiscing about their childhood en español.
Advantages:
It's easy to use, students e-mail to you
students can share and have other students collaborate on their project [peer editing etc...]
it's easy to upload their photos
it has pre - made scrapbooks so students choose a theme but can still personalize it.
it works well for students who feel aren't too artistic so that they can focus on their grammar
Disadvantages:
students have to create their own accounts
the site was very slow when students were all logged in at the same time [very very slow on laptops]
you can't have students record their voice which would be a cool feature to have.
