Be A Contributor…

December 19, 2008 | Leave a Comment

Part of the power of the network is that we can ask – and receive – help when we need it.  Was given this link by my supervisor yesterday.  Seems Joseph Williams at Sunset Vista Elementary is looking for help in connecting his students to photographs around the globe to use in their picture stories.  His students had watched this video and saw power in the message, and want to try making their own.

Powerful stuff.

He posted this plea on his wiki, and I though I would pass it along.

My class was very interested in the way these videos were made. They want to share their own writing with pictures of words. We can not take enough pictures ourselves. If you have access to a digital camera or cell phone camera we would appreciate it if you would contribute a few pictures.

Now, how can this help you? We share. All of the pictures are going to be put on flickr and shared under a Creative Commons License with the tag: 09picturestories You can search for them and use them for your own non-commercial stories.

How you can help

Take pictures of words, numbers or letters.
Tell other people about this that you think may be interested. Get more people involved. The more pictures we have, the more words we’ll have for stories.

How you can share

3 Easy Ways to Share
1. Email me the pictures*: jdwilliams33 {@} gmail.com (just remove the spaces and {} signs)

2. Upload them to your flickr account and tag them: 09picturestories

Can you help Joseph and his students?
