Free Technology for Teachers: Every Stock Photo - A Search Engine for Free Images | elearning stuff | Scoop.it

"The next time that you need to find some high resolution images for a slideshow skip the Google Image search and head over to Every Stock Photo. Every Stock Photo is a search engine for public domain and Creative Commons licensed pictures. When you search on Every Stock Photo it pulls images from dozens of sources across the web."

Beth Dichter's curator insight, May 24, 11:51 PM

Check out this site the next time you need to find pictures for multi-media presentations. It only searches for images in the public domain (and that are Creative Common licensed). Please note that the photos at their website are free to use but they also provide access to photos from Fotolia which may require some payment.

Narrative Strategies for Learning | Usable Learning

Narrative Strategies for Learning | Usable Learning | elearning stuff | Scoop.it

by Julie Dirksen

 

"So this session is about pulling some of the specific strategies that fiction writers use to into learning scenarios.  There are a lot of other interesting ways to explore storytelling in terms of meta-structures, psychology and cultural constructs.  This isn’t that presentation (though I’ll probably do that one too, one of these days).

 

"This presentation is focused on specific strategies for making learning stories more interesting." 


Via Jim Lerman
Jim Lerman's curator insight, May 22, 4:40 PM

Lots of people talk about how important it is to tell a story when trying to inform, entertain, persuade, or teach someone something; but they usually don't tell you how to do that. Or, if they try to tell you, they don't do it very well.

 

Dirksen is not one of those people. She explains very well and this slide deck is a terrific distillation of a great deal of wise information. This is really good!
