What is Adobe Photoshop?
If you have ever wanted to remove an object from an image, adjust the color of a
 Bestsellers
photograph, draw using the computer, or create a collage of images, then Photo-
shop 7.0 is the tool for you. Photoshop allows users to manipulate and change im-
 Books
ages and graphics with simple easy to use steps. Photoshop is the premiere in im-
age editing software. Photoshop also has an easy to use interface for creating web
 Audiobooks graphics for web pages.

What should you consider before beginning?
 Snapshots
Take Your Time.
 Documents
 As with any graphic program, the work is tedious. The skills explained within this
manual will help you to master some of the features available within Photoshop.
However, these are only the beginning steps. There are so many topics to cover
within Photoshop it would be impossible to combine them all within one manual.
Patience is the key.

Prior to beginning any project, Plan Ahead. Planning a design within Photoshop or
having an objective prior to beginning a project will save time and prevent user frus-
tration.

 Bestsellers Level Category Description

0 Nonuse A perceived lack of access to technology-based tools or a lack of time to pursue


 Books electronic technology implementation. Existing technology is predominately text-
 based (e.g., ditto sheets, chalkboard, overhead projector).

 Audiobooks
1 Awareness The use of computers is generally one step removed from the classroom teacher
(e.g., it occurs in integrated learning system labs (i.e. Jostens, CCC, IDEAL, Plato),
special computer-based pull-out programs, computer literacy classes, and central
 Magazines
word processing labs). Computer based applications have little or no relevance to
the individual teacher's instructional program.
 Podcasts 2 Exploration Technology-based tools serve as a supplement (e.g., tutorials, educational games,
simulations) to the existing instructional program. The electronic technology is em-
 ployed either for extension activities or for enrichment exercises to the instructional
 Sheet Music  program.
3 Infusion Technology-based tools including databases, spreadsheets, graphing packages,
 Snapshots  probes, calculators, multimedia applications, desktop publishing, and telecommuni-
cations augment selected instructional events (e.g., science kit experiments using
spreadsheets or graphs to analyze results, telecommunications activities involving
 Documents data sharing among schools).
4a Integration Technology-based tools are mechanically integrated, providing a rich context for
(mechanical) students' understanding of the pertinent concepts, themes, and processes. Heavy
reliance is placed on prepackaged materials and sequential charts that aid the
teacher in the daily operation of the instructional curriculum. Technology (e.g.,
multimedia, telecommunications, databases, spreadsheets, word processing) is per-
ceived as a tool to identify and solve authentic problems relating to an overall theme
or concept.
4b Integration Teachers can readily create integrated units with little intervention from outside
(routine) resources. Technology-based tools are easily and routinely integrated, providing a
rich context for students' understanding of the pertinent concepts, themes, and proc-
esses. Technology (e.g., multimedia, telecommunications, databases, spreadsheets,
word processing) is perceived as a tool to identify and solve authentic problems
relating to an overall theme/concept.
5 Expansion Technology access is extended beyond the classroom. Classroom teachers actively
elicit technology applications and networking from business enterprises, govern-
mental agencies (e.g., contacting NASA to establish a link to an orbiting space shut-
tle through the Internet), research institutions, and universities to expand student
experiences directed at problem solving, issues resolution, and student activism
surrounding a major theme or concept.
6 Refinement Technology is perceived as a process, product (e.g. invention, patent, new software
designed), and tool for students to use in solving authentic problems related to an
identified real-world problem or issue. In this context, technology provides a seam-
less medium for information queries, problem-solving, and product development.
Students have read access to and a complete understanding of a vast array of tech-
nology-based tools to accomplish any particular task.
