As I do at this time every year, I’m taking the week off to ski and play with my kids, shovel snow, and generally not think about work. I have some of the most popular posts of the year scheduled to republish this week. New posts will resume in the new year.

A couple of weeks ago in my Practical Ed Tech Tip of the Week newsletter I included a PDF guide to use in determining whether or not you can use a picture you’ve found on the Internet. To accompany that guide and provide some clarifications I then recorded a short video presentation in Canva. 

In this short video I provide a high-level overview of determining whether or not you can re-use a particular picture that you’ve found on the Internet. For a list of good, classroom-friendly places to find pictures for your projects, take a look at my guide to finding media for classroom projects.
