Photoshop

This is my beautiful photoshop creation! It has 7 different layers in it...each flower is a layer as well as the bird and the text. While this photo is far fetched, it was so much fun stretching my imagination and learning how to crop, edit and create brand new images. This would be a really fun teaching tool in making documents and worksheets more fun, creative, interactive and useful for students. Say I make up a test, I can put images on it for my visual learners to better understand the question. 

I found photoshop to be a very challenging program to use. It gets very confusing with all of the layers and there are so many different tools that it is often hard to keep track. Today's students are very technology savvy and could probably master photoshop, but I would probably feel more comfortable just using it myself to make things for my students, like handouts, or for my parents, like notices or newsletters or progress reports to send home.
