Soweto School PortraitsJan 28th, '09 by Kevin_Michael_C...
 One of the best parts of being a traveling photographer is getting to interact with kids in so many different countries. This short series was taken in Soweto in late July. As three o’clock rolled round and the kids began their trek back home from school, I found myself in their midst – surrounded by some territorial first graders.
Once order was restored, and they saw that my spot on their turf was temporary, they were keen to get their portrait taken. With a mix of kids, the bigger ones were pushing their way to the front to try and be closest to the camera. Pulling out the inner drill seargant, I barked the rules. “Hey! You all can get you’re pictures taken, but you have to line up and go one at a time. Otherwise I won’t do it.” That wised them up and everyone got their fair shot. Hope you dig.

Technology offers powerful learning tools that demand new skills and understandings of students, including Multimedia, and accept credit card provides new ways to engage students, such as Virtual learning environments. Technology is being used more not only in administrative duties in education but also in the instruction of students. The use of isp technologies such as PowerPoint and interactive whiteboard is capturing the attention of students in the classroom. Technology is also being used in the assessment of students. One example is the Audience Response System (ARS), which allows immediate feedback tests and classroom discussions.
