Picnik


This is a great site. I had so much fun uploading pictures and creating pieces I never thought possible. I even considered changing professions, from a novice Learning Manager to a Professional Card maker. This was a very easy site to use. The educational gain from using a site like this is amazing as students can upload pictures and photo's and incorporate colourful pictures to posters and assignments at their own leisure, be it in the classroom or at home. Also teachers can make their presentations bright and pleasing to the eye to enhance interest from the students. Picnik is easy to use and I would encourage students and teachers who have little computer skills to experiment with a site like this to gain confidence with this sort of technology.

  1. Hi Tanya, Looks like you have been busy. Being able to edit our photos so easy is an asset to a classroom where all you need to do is crop a picture and add a caption before you print or share. I find that the program is simple enough so that even our children could have a crack at editing photos that they have taken of their own projects. Do you think that you would try that in your own classroom?
