GIMP

License your work

Students will learn how to create and license their creations.. http://creativecommons.org/videos/  Students choose Gimp or Google to create a unique design and then upload it under the creative commons license. We will viewed several videos at the Creative Commons website: Wanna Work Together, Building on the Past, and Mix Tape. This has introduced the concept of selecting a license based on how you want others to use your work.

Create something that makes a statement about you. You can draw it- Combined photo's-make a logo. Think of it as a design that could be applied to clothing, or a brand name.

Ideas+tools+work=Your unique work.
