Snipping Tool

I have used the snipping tool before, but never had to post the image into something such as this.

As an aspiring Physical Education Teacher, the use of technology is often limited during the average lesson. However, during the Health Units I could incorporate computer work stations for the students to use to look up information about muscles, diseases, pressures from bully's, effects on the body from drugs and alcohol and other Health related topics.

For example; the image below demonstrates how a student could look at the image of muscles in the arm, then quickly point them out on in him/herself or a partner. The image and link could be a part of a quiz or worksheet.

The Snipping Tool allowed to me to focus on a certain image from the website in order to give the students a direct understanding of what is being shown, rather than other images and pop-ups distracting them from the given assignment.

I believe that I would use this tool frequently if I were teaching a different subject, but I am going to show this to others on how easy it is to use.
