Grade: 7-12
Here is a tool that could be used to add to lessons or be used as a tool to teach students. Aviary is a photo editing tool that allows you to take photos and render them to however you wish. This tool is pretty neat and is very different from programs like instagram, flickr or photoshop.
It is different because you can download it as an app like the others, but it is very easy to use. You are able to enhance photos, give them different effects, include frame and stickers, crop, resize, rotate and much more. What is intriguing about this program is its ability to be easily accessed and can be efficiently used. This tool can be used in CTS courses in the higher grade levels. I would not advise to use this at younger grades, unless you personally wanted to fix photos personally than letting the students use the program. Junior high and high school students would be able to easily use this tool, and could be used to develop lessons on photo editing, cropping or any other photo classes. Also, students could be able to use this program when creating projects to give it a different edge for presenting. Aviary is available in many different languages as well, so it can tailor to the ESL students in your classroom.
