My FINAL Project!

I decided to learn about Photoshop for my final project. I know the class has been centering a lot on free use software and programs, but they do have a version for free online that has a lot less options, and my husband happened to own the program. So, he taught me a lot about photoshop and I figured out a few things myself. The program is really useful for creating almost any kind of graphic. I created a poster for a dance concert as an example. Teachers can also use photoshop to create posters for visual aids. They can create decorations, or create graphics for video projects. It can basically help you create anything that involves graphics. Visual learning is an important part of education for many students that do not thrive with aural learning, therefore creating interesting and useful graphics can help some children to better understand many topics.



After learning about Photoshop, I keep finding ways I can use it to help others with projects, to supplement my own creative ideas, and to become more technologically savvy. Although it is not a program that directly involves students, using Photoshop, teachers can create many visual aids to help make lessons more interesting and meaningful.
