Aviary

Sunday, July 11, 2010
With summer comes long days outside and away from the computer. I have completely lost track of updating my blog. Today is the day that changes! I want to continue sharing sites that I feel are useful in the educational world.

Today I want to share Aviary.com - it is a suite of online tools that include photo editing, music creation, and screen capturing. All of the tools are free to use and can be accessed with a Google, Facebook, Twitter, or Yahoo account.

Recently Aviary added an education section that allows for private student accounts and an assignment manager.

One of the best features Aviary offers is the tutorial section. Easy, intermediate, and advanced step by step tutorials are available for students to learn with. I even allowed my students to use their own pictures while following along with the tutorials. This allows the students to be creative while learning new techniques!

    I just love the Aviary suite of tools! It is such a great alternative to the expensive Adobe suite. I also like that it is based online so students can access the powerful tools from home as well.
