Principal Walder's Monday Memo
For the Week of November 26
Google Advanced Image Search
If you are planning a project with students working with inserting images into projects, please let me know. I'd love to show this to students for projects, too!
You can use the Google Advanced Image search to save a lot of time when looking for images. There are multiple ways to access the Google Advanced Image Search. I'll review a couple of the most common.
1) Go to Google.com like normal. Type in your search term. After the results come up, below the search box you will see sorting options. Choose the middle one "Images" and you'll find the most common search terms already at the top of your results. (See the first screenshot below.) You can select on each of the top categories to see the categorized results.
2) After the steps above, you can also select "Tools" to sort the original or categorized results by size, color, usage, type, and time. The time option can help you find images published during specific dates or from specific points in time. (See the second screenshot below.)
One of the best parts of filtering by color is being able to filter black and white as well as a line drawing. This can help you find possible coloring, assignment, or blank map pages for classroom use.
Another option is to search only on a specific website. For example, put in that you will only search https://artsandculture.google.com/ (the Google Art Project) or https://search.creativecommons.org/ (Creative Commons) for images.
