Digital Imaging

This week in Technology Class, we have learned a ton about Digital Images.  We used Picasa Web albums to create a slideshow about a topic that we chose.  We used our new knowledge of Creative Commons and Copyright laws to grab photos from the internet that go with a topic that we decided on.  I used pics4learning.com  It's a fantastic website with a ton of images that are well organized and easy to find for use in the elementary classroom.


Also, we did a digital scavenger hunt.  This was a really fun, hands-on activity that helped me to learn the basics of digital imaging.  I learned that digital images that come out of our cameras and iPhones are jpeg format.  On the iPhone they are set to 72 resolution, which is perfect for sharing on the web!  We had a list of things we needed to find all over the education building.  Once we found these things and took pictures of them, we made a google presentation (similar to Powerpoint) to display our findings.  This was a really cool project and I enjoyed doing it a ton.

Here is the link to my Google Presentation : https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/14T-nIQaId5zYUErS2FyRPWC3wRc0lKWEDjHkU5x_Pz4/edit?usp=sharing
