Iphoto Uses in the Classroom

Iphoto is an excellent tool for organizing, editing, and sharing digital photos. Students can select their own photos and design photo books—complete with their own text—and publish or print them right from the classroom.

One partucularly great feature of iphoto is that it allows you to search and sort photos by location. This could be an effective tool in a social studies classroom. For example, a teacher can link pictures from around the world to the actual location seen in Google Maps. This provides students with great visual images from places they are studying.
