Watch the YouTube video below about posting your picture online. Students should never post their own pictures online, and definitely never with your real name. Always use an alias which you will choose in class. You will get a list of student alias' in your email inbox. All you have to do then is check it to know who in the class you are talking to or reading.
Instead of posting your pictures online you may choose to post no picture at all or you may choose to post an avatar. You have two choices when using avatars. You can either choose one of the avatars I have found and posted on the right side of the screen here or you can choose to create your own.
Following are some resources for creating your own avatar:
- Create My Picture (Only gives you a face)
- Tektek Dream Avatar Creator (this anime style creater takes quite a bit of time but produces nice images with huge amounts of choices) *Should only be used outside of class time.
- David Gonzales has created the Mijos which are comic strip characters. Click here to view the Mijos characters and email me if you would like to use one of them.
- Other avatars you could use are shown on the right side of this page. If you have an image or photo you would like to use please send it to me in an email and I will consider it.
Last but not least you could use one of these bears for your avatar. Email me with your choice.
