After reading the article titled "Key Concepts for Digital Photography" by Chamberlin what concepts did you learn that will help you when incorporating digital photography in your teaching situation? Explain.
Honestly, I would have thought Donna wrote this article. This was a good review of information that was presented in class. Also, for us beginners, it was a good way to solidify dig. camera information.
As far as the class room, I would like to use the greeting card activity for a reading comprehension activity.
I also like the t-shirt activity for maybe a grammar activity. The students could take pictures of nouns or verbs with people "doing" something and print them on t-shirts. Other parts of speech would work too! This would be an great final assessment for the parts of speech.
This is a great article for someone who is trying to learn how to use a digital camera to take good pictures and what to do with the pictures once you've taken them. There are lots of wonderful projects you can create using your photos for personal use or to teach content in the classroom. I plan to use digital photography to make writing prompts and books for my students. I also think it would be great to use the greeting card activity for holidays. It will give the kids another way to make cards to give their parents, family, etc.
This was exactly what I needed to hear and one big reason I took the class. I truly started with limited knowledge and this easy to read article helped me immensely. Two of the biggest problems I see about taking pictures in Phys. Ed. is the speed of the students doing activity and the bad lighting in the gym. This article touched on both areas alittle but Donna expanded on both things nicely. What I would like to do is have students take pictures all year long of classroom activities and then have a Power Point presentation in the spring at our annual Fine Arts Festival. Students could help with the editing as well as picture taking. This was a great first article for me.
