Images and Sounds for use in Educational Presentations or Podcasts

This week it seems that I have been asked almost every day about free images for use in schools so I decided to start to compile a list! There is a Creative Commons Search Engine: http://search.creativecommons.org/ which can be used to search many different creative commons sources from one page. Google images and Flickr have settings that can restrict images offered to those with a Creative Commons licence, it is worth exploring the settings. The following should be an embedded Google Doc - I have never done this before so it will be interesting to see how/if it works!


If you have any sites to add please go to Google Docs to add them and share the page with anyone who may find it useful - visit https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QHJoG7pbZxQPNEzIhCNIuLwxQIydlyIcINdLLD5xOkg/edit?hl=en

Re the embedded Google doc - I had to add some code to give a bit of height and width, it started off very tiny with no measurements in the original code. It is pretty usless - but an interesting trial :-)
