Trouble with Digital Images

I loved this module, as it comes straight from my heart. I love enhancing, editing, and creating with photographs. The worst part of this module was submitting it. I seriously spent from 5:30 p.m. to 11:30p.m. yesterday trying to get everything to upload. I would get one file uploaded thent he upload screen would freeze on me. My slideshow took about 2 hours to upload. Needless to say, I am a bit tired and worn out today.

Digital Image Project

I have been working on my digital image project, but it doesn't seem like work to me at all. From all the classes I have taken with this degree I have done a lot of "photo-story" type projects. I really enjoy doing them, especially when it is documenting part of my life. I have even used a photostory at my housewarming party to show the steps in building our house and to introduce Ancient Civilizations to my third graders. I am having a lot of fun with this!

Word and Publisher

I enjoyed completing my "taking off" activities. I especially enjoyed the publisher activity. Writing the book and deciding what pictures are included was fun and interesting. Although I knew how to use many of the skills I applied I have not used them in that way. Doing these activities also gives me new strategies to use in my classroom. :)
