PHOTOGRAPHY IN EDUCATION

Photography can be used in learning.A picture speaks a thousand words.Schools have photography as a hobby subject to take up these days. And the takers are many.Special needs children and slow learners,beginners all need pictures for effective learning.All excellent presentations have photos or pictures or videos in them.New languages are learnt much faster when photos are used.Quite simply,visual learning or use of multimedia is far more interesting than "learning by rote" or only from the textbook.A teacher can get the attention of her students and keep it while teaching,if she uses visuals to support her lesson.
To be a photojournalist requires one to be a compelling story teller.A photo has to capture the emotion of the moment for it to be effective.Listen to a talk by Davis Griffin,the photo director of National Geographic,enumerating what is required of a photojournalist to connect with the world.Very very interesting,specially if you have a project covering subjects from environmental science,or geography.My 8 th grade student has to do a presentation on Project Tiger and he is making good use of his camera to get him excellent grades this term.

POWERPOINT IN THE CLASSROOM

Schools have adopted technological modes of teaching,and have been particularly successful in grading students according to their powerpoint presentations.These presentations are a hit with every student as it is a creative aspect of the student being focused upon.It also aids faster learning.All subjects can be taught using ppt.Some teachers emphasize their topic's,"Points to remember" at the end of every chapter through a ppt. My 8 th grade student had to submit a ppt on a topic of common interest for an English class.Guidelines were given 10 days in advance and he had to submit this as a project and once approved by the teacher,he would be assessed for the presentation in class. His friends get to ask him questions and his presentation skills are enhanced.
Students are taught to use powerpoint,word and excel for their class projects.An excellent website that guides teachers and students in using powerpoint effectively in the classroom can be found here.There are 3 versions of the FREE ONLINE TUTORIAL.
