This weeks assignment focused on digital images which directly tied into week one's assignment. This week I was able to implement several of the principles I read about to develop a lesson utilizing digital images. I was able to manipulate digital images, create an info-graphic and a gif. All of the images I used to complete my assignments had a CC Creative Commons License therefore I was able to utilize/manipulate them for the purposes of my lessons. The most challenging of the three assignments was the gif. In my opinion, I needed more that 5 seconds to complete an effective gif. Also, because of the way that I am utilizing the Blog to create and post my assignments, I am learning how to use simple HTML codes.
REFLECTION
Digital images are extremely important in any learning environment especially for visual learners. Digital images enrich learning experiences for learners and allow educators to introduce a variety of assignments involving technology. As an educator I appreciate the variety of assignments that digital images offer. Digital images can be utilized in all subjects and to any age learners.
