Instagram and Vine

I had a little difficulty getting Instagram and Vine due to the model, amount of gb, age, and condition of my smartphone. I also had to have my teenage son assist with finding and downloading both of these sites. Due to the large amount of space that Vine requires, he even had to remove a few apps off my phone before Vine would properly download. I enjoyed both of these sites and look forward to exploring them further.
Instagram: Today when using Instagram, I toke pictures off of my smartbook. Is was easy to do. I was prompted to enter a caption, so I made each one of them short. This would be a good way to share pictures of assignments, project, and other things that happen in a classroom or library. I feel that students of many ages would be able to utilize this site and Vine.
Vine: As mentioned above, I had some difficulty downloading Vine. However, once I had the help of my teenage son I was able to get Vine downloaded. Be sure to download Vine when you have extra time because it took over an hour to download on my outdated smartphone. This site provides a variety of ways in which the user can share their 7 second video piece. Below you will find a link to both of the Vine videos that I created. I found both of these sites to be easy and fast to use. I look forward to having more time in the near future to explore both of these sites more so that I can become more familiar with them as an mother, educator, and future librarian.

    Ms. Nutcracker was a crackup! And if you go around and look at what other teachers are doing with Vine, you may be able to set up some learning experiences for students as well as having them set up their own learning experiences to share~
