Project Description
• This project is for my 5th grade social studies
project, where we find online images to add to
our understanding of our Unit plan on
Jamestown and Pocahontas. These images will
strengthen my knowledge of the history of
Jamestown, Virginia and Pocahontas.
Process of finding images
• Although I begin using several of the options
to begin looking for images, I ultimately used
AltaVista Image Finder to find my images. I
liked this website because it clearly stated
where the image source came from, and I was
able to find information for citations and
copyright information.
Ease and Effectiveness
• I found AltaVista to be extremely easy and effective. The images
show first, then lead you directly to the main source. It clearly
stated whether the image was copyrighted, and I was able to not
use certain images because of the copyright violations.
• I tried to www.picsearch.com, and didn’t find it useful. I was
confused on how to use the options to find images that matched
my searches.
• I also tried to use Image Finder (UC Berkeley), however, I struggled
finding pictures that were useful for my project. Although that
website could be easy to use for other projects, they do seem to
have limited options.
• Overall, I was extremely pleased with AltaVista, and would certainly
feel prepared to use this website for other searches.
Easybib.com
• When creating my “Works Cited” page, I decided
to use www.Easybib.com, as that is the program
we teach in my Elementary School for 6th grade
CBA work (mainly because it is free.) The program
was incredibly easy, filled in the known
information, then allowed for me to fill in the rest
by looking at the website.
• I also really appreciated that there was a export
to word document, and a copy/paste options for
me to simply copy and paste my works cited into
this PowerPoint presentation.
