The National Science Teachers Association published the article. The use of digital photography in education offers technology that can help students develop the skills necessary to access, analyze and evaluate all forms of information and communication. Students learn to recognize how images represent diverse perspectives and connect or manipulate information. Incorporating digital imagery in the classroom instruction provides a hands-on, motivating learning environment. Students also enjoy taking pictures of their local community and learn about economics, geography, and history.
Development in technologies and web services provide many opportunities for developing learning, teaching and assessment activities. It is low cost; therefore, it is available in any school or classroom. Designed to encourage creativity and it is a great way to present ideas and information to learners in ways that help their understanding and learning.
I believe that we must prepare learners for a digital world. Students must be thought how to critically view and constructively use imagery as one form of media in a cultural and digital world. By promoting an exchange of knowledge, the classroom became the site of active learning fostered by the technological resources available.
Research would be useful on three dimension digital imaging. Unfortunately, there is currently no commercially available technology suitable for delivering 3D objects.

I agree that we need to prepare our students for a digital world. Many things in the classroom now involve technology. Three dimensional imagery would be a great advance and use in the classroom.
We do, indeed need to do more to prepare students for the ever growing digital world that is on the uprise. With all the advances that are constantly coming about we need to make sure we are not carried away and that we do not lose sight of our best interest, the students and make sure they all remain on the same page as this world and it's technology is very fast paced.
