Ideas for Photography in Education
I found this article in ezine, which is an online photography periodical. So to find a list of ideas of how to use photography in the education was very exciting. Ezine tends to have experts writing for them so the information can be trusted. All 17 ideas are great. I wa especially excited by #16, See the History. I believe that using digital pictures in a history class is a great way to engage the students. This idea does just that. I feel like I could take any of these ideas and bring them into my classroom, regardless of the age of the students. It is very encouraging to see that photography experts see a use for photography in education.

  1. Hi Jen;

    You found some more great resources in this article. I liked the idea of using digital photos to create a video or slide show. Students could record their voices, too. Also, making a themed bulletin board and having students contribute their photos would be a great idea. I hope you get to use some of these projects in your class.
