We have been using flickr and flickrcc, both creative commons sites and students
are now getting inappropriate images (for 5&6th grade). Because of this same
reason we routinely discourage students from googling images. Anybody out there
have a subscription or database that helps avoid these issues?
Our student topics are all over the place as you might guess.
I usually suggest the websites they use for their information, but that isn't
always sufficient.
I'll post a hit if I get a number of suggestions.
Thanks

"I really didn't realize the librarians were, you know, such a dangerous group.
They are subversive. You think they're just sitting there at the desk, all quiet
and everything. They're like plotting the revolution, man. I wouldn't mess with
them." ...Michael Moore
