Yes, teachers are being asked to become more technologically advanced, and yes, it requires some new skills. But the good news is that editing photos is now easier than ever with cloud-based tools. In this chapter, and using the basic and advanced PIXLR online tutorial videos which I’ve included, you will learn how to edit photos and create beautiful images for your online courses. PIXLR, is a free online photo editing software that you can use with any online web browser. The tool is so easy to use that you will likely find hundreds of uses for it as your work becomes more digitally focused. PIXLR comes with a huge library of free stock images that will help you bring your presentations to life. Use PIXLR ito customize the media (video clips, digital images, etc.) that you want to incorporate into your virtual classroom, along with the colors and themes you want to maintain in your materials. For example, if you are teaching a lesson on Africa, you can quickly import images of life in Africa. PIXLR enables you to customize these images before you download them for use in your online videos or Google slides. In the online course, you are given a sample PNG file that is used to integrate your webcam video source with another source of media. This is an advanced use of PIXLR but it uses a simple process for video content creation. In an upcoming tutorial video, you will learn how to use this image overlay process to mix your webcam video source with document cameras and/or Google Slides presentations to make visually engaging video presentations for your students.
