Safe Image Searching
and
Free-to-Use Images
As students research for informational writing or other school projects, it is important for students to know how to search safely for images. Badgerlink Britannica Image database and the new KidsInfoBits database resources are great, safe resources for image searching. An email will be sent out to teachers for the username and/or password for these database resources.
A couple more avenues include Using Google Advanced Image Search and Pics4Learning. In using Google Advanced Image Search, When using this, pay attention to the SafeSearch and Usage Rights aspects for safer and free-to-use image searching. Pics4Learning is a safe, free image library for education. This would be a great Digital Citizenship lesson for your class. Contact me if you would like to schedule a lesson.
