Through this instruction students will then be able to use their cameras on various Study Trips and Classroom Projects to take pictures that will help them complete their projects as well as create Memory Books to be taken home by them at the end of the school year.
Instruction will include an explanation of how a Digital Camera Works, how to download pictures from a camera, how to digitally change a picture, and how to use the picture in different computer applications. |
