Assignment Title: Image Editing (Climate Regions)
Uses in the Classroom: In the past, I've had students do a group project where they research a specific climate region and discover different aspects of the temperature, climate, and interesting facts to present. I could use Photoshop to create (under Creative Commons) a copy of a picture of the landscape from the area they are studying and alter the image in some fashion (maybe making the picture look old, as if it were taken with an old camera).
Also, using a GIF file and having students make their own animation to put on a map of the world, creating links to their presentations is another way to incorporate image editing.
Students will create and change pictures from multiple points of view using creative commons websites to make a presentation on a climate region in small groups.
Issues to Consider: Groups would have to be smaller, and you could always use more than one location within a climate region. Students would also need to understand copyright laws and how to properly source their information.
Copyright: The GIF image was created using a trial version of Photoshop.
