I wish I had had that content-aware tool to use to eliminate some wires from a photo I was tweaking in the fall!
ReplyDeleteUsing a blog to host a curriculum page is an excellent idea. Quick. Easy. And the comments could be used for answers... or you could instruct the students to turn in their answers somewhere else.
I like the idea of posting your answers as comments. Thanks!
