Imagine my surprise when I discovered I was going to be able to investigate the Flickr site more for my next 'THING'! I enjoyed searching specific tags to discover more about the site. It was like a treasure hunt, which I enjoyed because it brought me back to my childhood. I decided to go through the tag novel and then wuthering heights. I also discovered this photo was inside the groups 'The Pleasures of the Text', 'Visual Mashups', 'Wild and Crazy...Lunatic Fringe', and 'Visibily Talented.' My project in this class is based around teaching the novel Wuthering Heights to senior English students, so I felt that this picture would be very appropriate for my flickr choice (also I LOVE this novel!). This photo not only appealed to me, but I feel that it would appeal to high school students. It is not only visually appealing and beautiful, but it is also informative. It lists numerous themes, symbols and ideas from the novel in a fun way that is 'young and hip' as my mother would say. This photo would be useful as an opening to teaching students about the novel, and I am planning on using it in my powerpoint teaching tool.
