Fun with Citations

On last night's PD in Your PJs Webinar, we shared a variety of citation resources for students. With all the available information that is out there for students, it is important for them to know how to evaluate the information and cite their sources whether that be for print or images. And it's never too early for a student to begin practicing and learning these skills.

Citation Extensions from the Chrome Web Store

Photos for Students

• Pics4Learning - The photos can be saved to Google Drive and a citation can be found beside all photos.
• EduPic Graphical Resource: Free Photographs and Graphics for Education - Website is done by William Vann, a photographer and teacher. Teachers and students can use all images without permission. 
• Unsplash - Not for those under 13. No attributions are needed. There is an add-on for Unsplash in Google Slides. 

Citations are also made easy with the Explore feature in Google Docs. Click Tools>Explore.

If you missed our guest PD in Your PJs Presenters Mrs. Grover from Lee Middle School and Mrs. Hogg from Central High School, you can watch the recording on our Instructional Technology Website. With all the resources they shared (and citations are included in many of the resources) this should be the first place students go for quality information. 

If you and your students have other citation tools that you use, please share those by adding them to the comment box below.
