For
those of you who might not already know, Instagram is a social media network,
which allows its users to post and share their pictures.
In
Design & Technology, Miss Wilkinson and I use Instagram as a way of
showcasing students' work and achievements.
Students can then double tap on the photo to show they “like” the image.
Since
setting up the Instagram account I have discovered that the students are not
always aware that their work has been photographed and uploaded. So, over the
Summer, I had stickers made, using the Instagram logo. I will use these stickers
by sticking them into the student’s books when I have photographed a piece of
work. This way, they will know to look out for their work being showcased.

Not
only do the students love seeing their work on show, but it is also raising the
profile of Design & Technology amongst the students' body.
You
can also link your Instagram to your Twitter feed, so that when you post a photo
on Instagram, you can also share it on Twitter.
