Hi, I am Brenda--I teach 4th grade in Eugene, OR at an alternative school. I teach computers and have kids import pictures and create stories with them. I have limited knowledge about digital photography--I have been using a digital camera for about 4 years--but don't know what a lot of the settings are for. I get lost in the menus of my camera! I am comfortable uploading pictures into iPhoto and showing a slide show, but again, I don't know much more than that--how to manipulate photos, or improve them.

I am a 4/5 teacher in Eugene, Oregon. I have been integrating technology in my classroom for the past 6 years. I am hoping that this year I can pass of the photography for the school year to the students. I plan to take the information that I learn in the classroom and share it with my class this year.
I will let you know how it goes............
Good morning! I'm Gail and I teach K-5 music in Federal Way. In the next 2 years, music teachers in WA are going to be using tech to implement the Classroom Based Performance Assessments (CPBA). I need to gain as much info, training, & practice to record my students CPBA. Help!! I would like to be more proficient for my own family use.Woo-hoo!!
My name is Linda Azure and I work for a small independent school in Seattle called Hamlin Robinson School. Our school serves students with dyslexia and related language disabilities. I am a speech/language pathologist. I like to use photos to encourage my students to share their life stories both verbally and in writing.
I have had an interest in photography for a long time, but only recently went digital. With four children, I take many pictures of family and special events.
I don't have alot of time to sit down and really learn my camera settings, computer software, and programming. My hope in this class is to spend concentrated time learning the basics to at least make the process more familiar.
Hi, my name is Jocelyn, I have always wanted to take beautiful and intriguing pictures. I teach 3rd grade and Spanish literacy at a high poverty school in Wenatchee, WA. I want to get my students involved with photography and its technology as a way for them to look at things from a new perspective.
I have a 2.5 year old daughter and a 4.5 year old son (who is doing his first ball camp today!) a very flexible husband and a saint for a mother who is taking care of all three of them this week. It's nice to meet you. =-)
Hi, I am Ann I teach 5th grade in the Highline School District. Photography is a wonderfully creative and safe way to do art and other projects. I hope to learn more quickly how to use the functions on the camera and Photoshop etc. My goal is to be a step or two ahead of the students so that they can take pictures of their "quality" projects etc. and share with their family and friends.
Hi, I'm Shelley. I teach 5th grade right here in Eatonville at Weyerhaeuser Elementary. I do not own at digital camera, so know nothing about them. I hope to buy one when I'm done here and at least be able to turn it on, maybe even point and shoot!!!
I teach Clover Park High School 9-12 CTE courses in Digital Design, Digitools, and Sales and Marketing. I am currently waiting for my results from National Boards in CTE. I am the department coordinator for the Business Department. I also teach Office and Web design for a South Puget Sound Community College.
I just returned from teaching teacher in Liberia and I want to learn how to modify some of my pictures.
