Uses in the Classroom: Using copyright friendly photographs, students will modify photos to create web graphics for their web portfolios and websites. Students can use to reflect the project they are assigned to visually represent what they are trying to say. For example, in the animated GIF above I chose to reflect my favorite comics as a kid. I have gone to see every blockbuster move that has come out in theatres. A connection that I can make with my students and also a good segue into using copyright friendly pictures reflect a point in an appropriate way. Specifically in my Web Development class, students create three web graphics for a customer in the mid-term project. One is where they are provided with a landscape image of grass and trees. They have to find images to manipulate and use the tools in GIMP to create an advertising graphic image to be posted on the website.
Issues to Consider: Time and equipment. Searching for copyright friendly pictures may take a bit of time as well as positioning in the animated gif.
