Hi Allison,

While this is intended for middle school students, a colleague and I developed a page of "Legal Use of Images" information on the Citations & Works Cited page of my website.  Perhaps you'll be able to get some ideas for the younger kids.

Best,

Cheryl

Good morning library colleagues,

I am writing again to see if anyone can offer feedback on images.  My students want to add images to their digital creations.  How do you advise students to add images?

Google Image Search?

Brittanica Imagequest?

Pics4Learning?

Other?

I am really struggling to find the right tool. I tend to support filtered Google Image searches within Docs and Slides.  I feel like part of digital citizenship is building student capacity for selecting appropriate imagery.  

Please let me know what you suggest!

Have a great day,

Allison

Dear librarians,

I am trying to determine best practices for using images at the elementary level.  Our district subscribes to Brittanica Image Quest.  It is easy to use, but it does allow access to some imagery and language that is not ideal for the elementary level.  Do you have recommendations?  Are your teachers simply inserting images from a Google Search?  Do you offer guidelines to your colleagues?  I am finding practices at my school to be a mixed bag and I'd like to offer professional learning to my colleagues to get us all on the same page.  Any help is appreciated.

Enjoy your week.

Sincerely,

Allison
