Assignment Title: Image Editing
Uses in the Classroom: Image editing has several uses in the classroom; especially in a graphic design class. In graphic design image editing is a primary topic to discuss and as the students learn new concepts, the teacher can assign several projects to ensure the student understands the material and can apply it through synthesis of new images.
The teacher would guide students through understanding the image editing software's key functions. Then the students would be given an assignment where they would take an image and apply various tools to create a new image. This could be as basic as simple color correction to advanced animation and integration with other products.
Issues to Consider: A major aspect of image editing is the software needed for image editing and the computers needed to run the software. Most image editing software is a very expensive investment for school districts. Also, image editing resource intensive on computers, so a computer that can run the software efficiently is also an expensive investment for a school district.
For the same reasons that listed above it can't be expected that students would have access to the software or computer hardware at home to perform assignments as homework. Assignments in image editing should only be given to students if the teacher has the time to allow students to complete them in class.
