Photos evoke so much emotion. Our pictures arouse pride, as we look back on the many stages of our life with family and friends. Our brains can fail us; the details fade away, but photos bring them back and help us revisit the special times we thought we would never forget.
Sometimes the images that evoke the most passion are not of our loved ones at all, but pictures we have grown up seeing on the walls of the world around us. Famous photos like The Last Supper, JFK with young John under his desk, a humble Mahatma Gandhi, Buzz Aldrin walking on the moon, the kiss in Times Square on V-J Day and the NY skyline with the World Trade Center have graced the walls of our homes and schools for decades. When we see the picture now, it takes us back to that place and time and wraps us in the comfort of familiarity. This stunning Christian collage was created in Graphics-Toolbox using 46 different images of Christ throughout his life. It has been interesting to receive responses from viewers. Most find that one particular picture pops out at them and stirs their emotions. Often that picture is one they remember from their mother's bedroom, grandparents' living room or school classroom. The photos we take and the images that surround us today will be our memories tomorrow. We can't choose what will stir us then, but we can be sure that in this image rich world, our future will be filled with vivid graphic souvenirs. |

Graphics-Toolbox® was created by a team of software designers with over 20 years experience in graphics programming. We discovered, that most other software programs, being used for graphics, were designed for other uses. For instance, Adobe Photoshop is an excellent photo-editing program, but a lot of people over the years, have had to use it as a general graphics manipulation/design package. They didn't have better options. Graphics Toolbox was designed as a real alternative to Photoshop for all non-photo effects, graphics needs. We created an extensive range of very easy to understand and use graphics tools, for the world's daily graphic needs. The other problem with other graphics software packages is that they were not designed from day one to keep things simple for the end users. Then as new programming was built upon the original design, the functions became more and more complicated for everyone other than professionally trained designers. For the rest of us, these other programs are difficult to learn and awkward to use. We believe that Graphics-Toolbox will quickly become your main graphics editing software tool and look forward to receiving your comments. |
Project Based Learning Kits and Graphics-Toolbox software were created by a team of designers with over 20 years of experience in graphics design and programming and a team of passionate and ambitious teachers. With the Common Core Learning Standards (CCLS) being implemented across the nation, these core learning standards were created in order to instill in students deep thinking, critical analysis, and creative problem-solving skills. Our Common Core Learning Project Kits are an essential tool to add to your academic toolbox. These project based learning kits are the key to helping teachers add rigor into project based education, meet the Common Core Learning Standards, engage their students in learning, improve student assessment, incorporate valuable technology, and publish students work in a variety of relevant formats. Educators are very excited about these units because all kits contain:
As you engage your students in learning with Project Based Learning Kits, you can be confident that you are aligning your curriculum with the standards that are expected of all grades across our nation, that you are offering rigorous differentiated learning opportunities, and that you are providing your students with 21st century instructional technology. You can also take advantage of these great student projects to compile dynamic visuals for hall bulletin boards and school websites. They are a great way to showcase students’ work, showing parents, administrators and colleagues how effective of a teacher you are! Inspiring students to incorporate relevant technology and learn to present their perspectives in formats that will be valuable for future classes and adult careers is fundamental to the goals and principles of the Common Core and Core Curriculum Standards and we are happy to help support that initiative. |
