The document discusses finding, citing, embedding, and remixing images for use in blogs and other online content. It provides instructions on using tools like Google Images, Flickr, Picnik, and Pixlr to search for images, make citations, and edit images. As homework, students are asked to find two images on a chosen visual subject, cite one image directly and remix the other using an editing tool, then blog about the process.

19. Homework Choose a visual subject: cats, your cat, libraries, balloons, whatever you like. Use one or more of the image search tools you learned about in class today (or an image search tool of your own) to locate at least two images on your subject that appeal to you. Create two blog posts: The first blog post should contain an image you found exactly as you found it. Include a citation letting everyone know where the image was found. Blog a bit about where you found the image and whether it was easy or difficult to find an image on your subject. The second blog post should contain an image you edited using one or more of the image editing tools you learned about in class today (or an image editing tool of your own). You can change an effect in the photo, crop it, add text, add another image or picture, whatever strikes you. Make it fun! Blog a bit about the changes you made to the image and whether it was easy or hard to edit your image.
