16 Ideas for the Classroom: Create special images to go along with writing projects or poems Edit photos for technology projects (like iMovie) Can do sequencing assignments with altered pictures Practice adding or using different effects to images Use images students create in class newsletter or wiki

17 www.picnik.com Strengths: It’s free! (Can create a basic account for free) It works on every type of computer (mac, pc, etc.) Clean, clear, simple site layout Easy to navigate Works with any photos you have saved on your computer Works with photos saved in many online organizers (i.e. facebook, flickr, picasa, myspace, photobucket, webshots, etc.) Far more “user friendly” than Photoshop Time efficient ‍Weaknesses: Does not help you organize photos The free account only gives you access to your five most recent photos but still tracks the rest. (If you later get a Premium account, you'll have access to everything you've ever done.) Doesn’t work with snapfish or shutterfly You need an email address to start an account Only allows you to edit one photo at a time

18 www.picnik.com ‍ Opportunities: Can take existing digital photos and create a new image Teaches basic photo editing skills and terminology Can share new digital creations online (email, blog, etc.) You can create picture collages ‍ Threats: Inappropriate photos might be used Students might get to into playing with the photos, and not focus on their assignments.
