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

What should you consider before beginning? Take Your Time. 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 frustration.

Saving Images for Publication •

Photoshop files are saved when you choose the File—Save As function. The purpose for preserving the original Photoshop file is to ensure that the layers of the image a kept intact. The layers allow the image to be editable. When an image is saved as a web graphic, the layers are flattened, meaning that the layers are dissolved into one image.



Always make sure to save the Photoshop file and later save the image for the web or as a graphic.



The saving options within Photoshop include: Save as (photoshop documents) and Save for Web (gif and jpeg).



The save for web option will compress the image to save space when publishing on the web or when using the image as a gif or jpeg.

Drawing an Image •

Images within Photoshop are drawn using selection area and free form shapes.



The use of filters also allows for additional drawing tool.



Drawing in Photoshop as in any computerized program required practice and patience. Experimentation is the best.

Working with Layers •

As images are created in Photoshop, Photoshop builds layer for each object.



At times it is necessary for the creator of the drawing to add additional layers.



Layers provide freedom for drawing, allowing the user to make changes to some objects without touching other.

Adding an Image from Another Image 1. 2. 3. 4.

Open a blank canvas Open the new image Using the pointer tool drag the new image onto the blank canvas A layer will be created for the new image on the canvas. As images are brought onto a canvas, a layer will be automatically created. 5. The order of the images in the layer palette determines the images position (front or back) on the canvas.

Page— 44

Using the History Palette •

The history palette is the only method for erasing items once the process has been completed on the canvas.



BE CAREFUL: Actions erased on the history palette are recorded according to order in which the actions were taken. If you need to erase a step you complete four steps ago, all steps up to that point will be erased.

Completing an Image Collage 1. Create a new canvas 2. Open all images that you want to include in the collage 3. Using the selection tool, select the portions of the original images that you want to use in the new collage 4. Using the pointer tool, drag the selected images onto the canvas, you will create several layers as you continue to drag images onto the canvas 5. Utilize all the tools discussed in this manual to add effects or text to the canvas. 6. Keep your background layer separate from the images so that effects or filters can be used to create texture and interest.

Helpful Hints - Adobe Photoshop Layers Layers are the most important aspect of a Photoshop document. When creating documents, create a layer for each object drawn on the screen. If an image is dropped onto a canvas, Photoshop will automatically create a new layer for the object. Always name your layers to distinguish between objects. Some layers may on have miniscule objects that are difficult to see in a thumbnail image. Organize your layers in order of importance on the canvas. The placement of a layer on the canvas can greatly affect the look and outcome of you image.

Saving When saving documents using Photoshop, always keep copies of your work. Always save as a Photoshop File. Photoshop files preserve the layers created in the original of the document. A graphic will be a flattened image, creating a more difficult editing surface. As long as layers exist, it is possible to lock certain layers, so that changes cannot be applied to those layers, while the editing process is being completed.

Nonuse

A perceived lack of access to technology-based tools or a lack of time to pursue electronic technology implementation. Existing technology is predominately textbased (e.g., ditto sheets, chalkboard, overhead projector).

Infusion

4a

Integration (mechanical)

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 word processing labs). Computer based applications have little or no relevance to the individual teacher's instructional program. Technology-based tools serve as a supplement (e.g., tutorials, educational games, simulations) to the existing instructional program. The electronic technology is employed either for extension activities or for enrichment exercises to the instructional program. Technology-based tools including databases, spreadsheets, graphing packages, probes, calculators, multimedia applications, desktop publishing, and telecommunications augment selected instructional events (e.g., science kit experiments using spreadsheets or graphs to analyze results, telecommunications activities involving data sharing among schools). Technology-based tools are mechanically integrated, providing a rich context for 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 perceived as a tool to identify and solve authentic problems relating to an overall theme or concept.

4b

Integration (routine)

Teachers can readily create integrated units with little intervention from outside resources. Technology-based tools are easily and routinely integrated, providing a rich context for students' understanding of the pertinent concepts, themes, and processes. 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

6

Refinement

Technology access is extended beyond the classroom. Classroom teachers actively elicit technology applications and networking from business enterprises, governmental agencies (e.g., contacting NASA to establish a link to an orbiting space shuttle 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. 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 seamless medium for information queries, problem-solving, and product development. Students have read access to and a complete understanding of a vast array of technology-based tools to accomplish any particular task.
