Today’s teachers are called upon to address visual literacy and good digital citizenship as part of state and national standards. Students are already communicating with images by way of social networking tools such as Instagram and Snapchat. This presentation addresses how to help students understand, appreciate, create, and share visuals in a safe and appropriate manner. Attendees leave with specific sites and ideas to use with their students at all levels.
