Presentation for MOREnet conference on Oct 14, 2013.
*Be a CREATOR and Storyteller. Take, edit, and share YOUR pictures and stories!*
My kickoff: 1. WE have the tools and social networks to CREATE and connect/share our stories with others. 2. Our brains are set up largely to process visuals over text.
So, why are we as educators largely consumers of media and why do we still rely mainly on text in education?
Time to SHIFT.
SHIFT to visual thinking and sharing of our stories. We can spread the POSITIVE stories in education and help other educators and kids.
Before educators can encourage kids to do the same, it's best if they have DONE it themselves!
Our focus was educator learning, doing, creating, and sharing.
Our goal was to take pictures, edit them with different apps, and then share them to a group page on my Flickr account--via my Flickr email. Every person on Flickr gets an email address to use for emailing pictures.
Many educators in the session had not edited pictures and said they rarely took pictures and told the stories of their edu-journeys with kids!
By the end of the session, we enjoyed seeing the pictures of our conference PHOTWALK pop up on my Flickr page. One person used WordFoto and many of us liked it so much, we bought it, too. :)
I showed my blog, Instagram, Twitter media stream, and Flickr account to show examples of the power of telling stories.

1. Picasa in the Classroom
Created by CUE and WestEd for Google
Get the tool: http://picasa.google.com
What is it?
Picasa is a free application that helps you instantly organize,
edit, and share all the pictures on your PC. It automatically
locates all your pictures and sorts them into visual albums.
Picasa also makes advanced photo editing simple. Picasa
Web Albums allow photos from Picasa (or iPhoto on a Mac)
to be uploaded to the web quickly and easily. Students and
parents can then access an online slideshow (complete
with captions) and download the pictures they like.
Why use it?
Students can use Picasa to:
• Organize and manage photos for projects and
reports.
• Quickly edit photos and other images.
• Share photos of school events with friends and
family.
Teachers can use Picasa to:
• Create an album for each student.
• Quickly create a slideshow for open house.
• Share field trip photos online for parents.
Expert Tip
Instructional Ideas You can send your pictures
Elementary. Take pictures of student work, presentations, to a local drugstore and
or field trips throughout the year and quickly turn them
into a slideshow that you can play at open house or during have professional quality
parent conferences. prints within hours. Just
Middle School. Students can create a historical photo click “Order Prints,” select

white effects to make them look like old photos and print

High School. Journalism students can keep all photos for
each edition of their newspaper or magazine in one location
on their classroom PC, adding descriptions and captions
that make them easy to find, re-use, and share.
2. Picasa in Action
Project: Taxonomy Skills
Grade/Subject: 7th grade Life Science
In Classroom Instruction That Works, Marzano,
Pickering, and Pollock suggest that “representing
similarities and diferences in graphic or symbolic
form enhances students’ understanding of and ability
to use knowledge.” Science students can compare
and contrast images of various animals and plants in
Picasa by adding captions. Then they can organize
the images into albums that represent either existing
taxonomies - or classifications that students create
themselves. In this way, students exercise their
powers of observation and learn science by doing
what scientists do. In addition, the visual medium
is a vocabulary development aid for many students,
especially English learners. Extend the assignment
by sharing students’ albums via Picasa Web and
asking students to evaluate each other’s work.
