I am currently working on a graduate course project on the use of digital cameras in education and training. I would like to know of other's experiences in using digital cameras in this way. Also, send me any links to web sites dealing with digital cameras and eduction. Any leads you can give me will be greatly appreciated! I'll even list you as a information source! :-) Thanks!

Hi Mike -

I am an elementary technology teacher and have introduced digital imaging to my 5-6th grades. A current project we are doing is for my sixth graders to have a photo of themselves taken with the camera, reduce the size, adjust the colors and use a software program to add text to their photo describing themselves. (This is for their 'graduation' from school). This project is very BASIC (we're dealing with 11-12 year olds!) but the kids seem to be fascinated with it. Good luck...
