Digital imaging responses

[mdonnell <mdonnell@STNY.LRUN.COM>]

Hi everyone,
I have been asked to post the results of the digital imaging question.

 try out the following sites:
one site is very techie:
http://www.shortcourses.com/
and this site is kinda cheesy but still okay
pegasus.cc.ucf.edu/~ucfcasio/qvuses.htm

In the school I am in we use a digital camera to put pictures in the school
newspaper.

We use the zap shot and tv/vcr for presentations. The students
photograph images, type information, etc and set the presentation to
music. Though some kinds of images are not great quality on the old zap
shots, the camera offers an introduction to the dizitized concept.  We
could never really get going with the old zap shot and the computer.
Our new digital permits easy hookup with the computer so we looking
forward to some creative and great looking work.

We complete a unit on ponding, I am using the digital camera to take pictures
in order to create a field guide to our local pond.  I have also take it on
field trips and have used it in class for pictures to include on parent
newsletters.

There are three teachers who are going to present at our workshop.  One teacher is 
communicating
with another class across the country, and is attaching digital images to the 
classes e-mail.

Another is using digital imaging in a science project.  The students are writing 
scientific
journals of plant life similiar to the Lewis and Clark Expedition.  They are 
describing aspects
of the plant, digital images and the location that the plant was found.

Another is using digital images with a local historical project.

Personally, I can think of using digital images combined with literature to improve 
wirting
skills.
