Big Huge Labs offers a great selection of free tools for building digital products with your pictures. One of the tools that I like is their
Trading Card generator that allows you to create trading cards about people, places, and events both real and fictional. To create your card you simply upload a picture or import one from Flickr, Instagram, or Facebook then add some text details about the person featured in the card. I created one about my dog, Morrison.
Applications for Education
As I wrote when I featured
Read Write Think's Trading Card Creator earlier this year, the
Big Huge Labs Trading Card generator could be used by students is to create a set of trading cards about characters in a novel, to create a set of cards about people of historical significance, or to create cards about places that they're studying in their geography lessons.
