How to Introduce Photography with iPads to Your Students

How to Introduce Photography with iPads to Your Students | iPads, MakerEd and More  in Education | Scoop.it

Therefore, it’s up to us to share the work of prominent photographers and showcase what a powerful form of expression photography can be. Luckily, we can easily capitalize on our students’ love of technology to do this! And, […]

You don't need expensive equipment to get started with photography. Students can use iPads or other devices to learn photography. This is a great tool use in the classroom especially if students are all issued a device.

I chose this article because it gives some insight on how more portable camera options (cell phones, ipads, other tablets, etc) are growing in popularity compared to a more expensive DSLR camera or other professional grade equipment.

"Apple has posted a series of quick videos covering some helpful iPhone photography tips. If you’re one of the many people who use their iPhone as their primary camera, you’ll likely find some of them to be informative.

You’ll find a variety of photography topics covered in the short videos, ranging from how to take pictures with depth control settings, stage light, time-lapse videos, trimming videos, taking portrait selfies, using the rule of thirds, choosing key photos for Live Photos, and more."

"Seek is a smartphone app designed to encourage and enrich exploration of the outdoors. It uses image recognition to identify plants and animals in photos, providing additional context for people already exploring nature around them. Seek also has a scavenger hunt mode, where it presents lists of commonly-recorded species near the user. As users find and photograph species on this list they earn badges and are presented with information about the species they are locating. Seek's creators recommend it for "families who want to spend more time exploring nature together." Seek is currently available for iOS. An Android version is in development but there is currently no estimated release date."

"Back in 2010, a team from Stanford University's computer graphics lab got their hands on a Nokia N900. It had a pretty good camera by smartphone standards at the time, but the researchers thought they could make it better with a little bit of code.

The Stanford team, led by professor Mark Levoy, was working on the cutting edge of a nascent field known as computational photography. The theory was that software algorithms could do more than dutifully process photos, but actually make photos better in the process.

"The output of these techniques is an ordinary photograph, but one that could not have been taken by a traditional camera," is how the group described its efforts at the time.

Fast forward to today, and many of the techniques that Levoy and his team worked on — yielding features like HDR and better photos in low light — are now commonplace. And in Cupertino, Calif,. on Tuesday, Apple's iPhone event was another reminder of just how far smartphone technology has come.

What we think of as a camera is largely a collection of software algorithms that expands with each passing year."

Mobile phone photography has made its way into the photography world. Early on, the phones were not equipped with great camera; however, today these cameras feature HDR and others features to create some fantastic photos.
