Photoshop practice

I really enjoyed this week's class and the photoshop tutorial. I had never used photoshop before, and it was definately challenging at first, however, the tutorial helped alot. In this tutorial, it taught us how to create layers, rename layers, upload images, use the gradient tool, paint brushes, add text, change the orders of the layers, the lasso and magic eraser tool, how to duplicate layers, etc. I learned that photoshop takes patience and time. It also takes alot of trial and error.

Photoshop, like any other computer program, can be very helpful in the field of education. The teacher should be familiar with this program, because it has the potential to be very useful in the classroom. I'm not too sure as to how much an elementary classroom will use photoshop (which is what I want to teach), however, it is always helpful to know how to use it, just in case. Even if the students are not using the program, photoshop can be used to create presentations in the classroom.
