Creative Commons Image


This is the image I found when searching through creative commons. I like incorporating images into a blog or the classroom, because it makes what you are discussing seem more real. When students can imagine what they're learning about, I believe they are more intrigued to try harder or feel more inquisitive about the topic. I thought I could have my classroom do a project where they research a country and some of the important characteristics that distinguish the country. This would give them the freedom to chose their own point of interest and find a lot of fun images to represent their country. So in this case I did an example of Italy and chose a photo of the Roman Colosseum.
