Before this week's lab in CEP 416, if a student had approached me to help her look for images online about a project we were doing in class, in this case Quinceañeras in Mexico, I would have directed her to a few different websites that I have used in the past. For example, I have used Google Images, Yahoo Images, MSN Images, or just search the internet using the keyword 'images' to see what came up. This is what I have used in the past to search for images as well as where I have used to get images from. In regards to how to cite the images, the thought would have honestly not crossed my mind. I would not have mentioned to the student to cite their image at all. If she would have been adamant about citing, I would have said to list the website where she found it on. I am sorry to say that I have never cited an image source until I realized in this lab that it was actually considered stealing to use someone's image without their permission.

However, it is a happy day now that I am able to say that my perspective has changed on searching for images on the internet and I would lead my student in a different search direction after the lab this week. Although I realize that these other websites mentioned above can still be viable sources (only if they have the correct 'some rights reserved' copyright), however, there are a plethora of other images available to the students. For example, if the students does a search at Creative Commons Search, they will be able to find images provided through many different search engines. The student can also use FlickrCC to search, as well as other websites. I will also sit down with them and go over which images they will use by showing them how the licenses work. I will also show them how to correctly cite where the image is taken from (see example above).

    Hi! I'm a Spanish teacher. I have a strong passion to teach in an urban setting.

    I love to travel and have gone to or will be traveling to Costa Rica, Spain, France, Ecuador, everywhere in Mexico, Canada, the US, Europe, Morocco, and have also lived in the Galapagos Islands over the summer to volunteer teaching ESL for two months.

    It is very exciting!
