A presentation and activity for the You Show… Get some hands on practice finding images you can use in your show (or anything you create) that are licensed for re-use, but also look beautiful. Beyond a list of search sites, […]
It’s been one of my long term dream plans to make a generalizable WordPress theme approach to the ds106 Daily Create so people (me included) could create news site to run daily challenges. One of the things I wanted to […]
