But Swedish artist Sanna Dullaway clearly doesn't agree with that concept as she has transformed some of the most famous black and white pictures ever captured into high resolution colour versions. While purists may disagree with the modernisation of such historic pictures such as the celebrations that marked VJ (Victory in Japan) day, images of devastation from Pearl Harbour and the shocking shot of a Viet Cong prisoner being shot in the head by an army general (demonstrating the brutality of the Vietnam War), the colour pictures do appear to re-emphasise the scene they are portraying. Little is known about the creator of these iconic images, but it is thought she is hoping to sell her work on the internet - and there is sure to be some firm interest. She writes on her Flickr site: 'Hi. It couldn't be simpler right? U.S. The aims for the devastating attack were for the U.S.

RefWorks Home Page PowToon in Your Classroom Read Time: 6 minutes I recently read a study on creativity that blew my mind: “A major factor in creativity is education: not whether you had a ‘good’ or ‘expensive’ or ‘public’ education, but whether you were encouraged to develop your creativity starting at an early age and continuing throughout your school years.” — Adobe Powtoon in Your Classroom — Creativity & Education We saw this first-hand, when Edson Tellez, a volunteer teacher in rural Mexico, wrote to us about how Powtoon changed the way his students viewed the world.

From Chalkboards To Chat Boards: What Will eLearning Look Like In 2075? Albert Einstein said: “Your imagination is a preview of coming attractions.” When we consider education, does this mean that we will eventually live in a world where learning feels more like play and everyone has access to equal education? Will we live in a world where learning is individualized so every student maximally benefits from the learning experience? We might. Let’s rewind a bit and appreciate how far we have come.

Twitter now has 255 million users, but activity has dropped year over year Twitter posted solid financials and user growth today, but it wasn't enough to reassure Wall Street after the company's struggles last quarter. The company reported $250 million in revenue, more than double what it pulled in for the same quarter last year. But it also reported a net loss of $132 million for the period, more than four times what it lost in the first quarter of 2013. Investors were actually more concerned with its user growth than financials. Twitter has a clear challenge ahead of it: how to connect with mainstream consumers and get its user growth moving in the right direction again. Anticipation was high for this quarter's results.
