Web Album

I used Picasa to create this Web Album. It includes pictures from as far away as Greece. This was fun and easy to do. I must say that it is a lot like putting pics on Facebook but I don't have to look all of the place for them I just go to Google and click on photos.

Creating a web photo album relates to ISTE NETS T standard #2 Design and develop digital age learning experiences because of contemporary tools. If students were the the ones actually preforming the file conversion then ISTE NETS T #1 Facilitate and inspire student creativity and innovation by engaging students in exploring real world issues using digital tools would be met. Teaching Advanced Apparel Design requires the use of a computer software package that is a plug-in to Adobe Illustrator. All files are in the .ai format so a with a screen capturing tool students be able to save their designs as a jpeg. would be very beneficial so students could send designs to their clients (if they were real clients)without their clients having to have Adobe Illustrator. Also a web photo album would allow the students in Principles of Clothing Construction class to take picture of their garment designs and have them at their fingertips at an interview. As the instructor I would teach the students to use these items to their fullest benefit.
