chapter 9: technology to support learning

Photography offers many benefits to individuals and society. It serves as both a creative outlet and a form of record keeping, a way to catalog our world and our memories.

Photography as an act allows participate in our world both as a producer and consumer.

Technology gives us a way to capture, store, and share photographs enhancing our ability to learn and increase the connections between our schools and communities.

This lesson provides an opportunity to document a moment, share it with others, and go back and reflect on it later.

Photographs are triggering towns, each a poem unto itself, waiting to be received.

Online each photograph posted is a community waiting to happen.
