Images I use for this presentation and others are taken from various sources, among these are SCAD's Digital Image Database via Jen Library's web page, Flickr.net and more specifically for my presentation in Ancient Greece I used a web site from the Department of Classical and Near Eastern Studies and The University of Minnesota [http://cnes.cla.umn.edu/courses/archaeology/index.html]
that proves to be very helpful.

In order to control the timing for my presentation [knowing that I have only 20 mins] I used 10 slides with various images in that relates to one topic for example plan, facade, and render from the Villa of Good Fortune in Olynthus. In order to guide myself and to benefit the students, in addition to the hidden notes in the computer, I included some basic notes about the images [name, date, place].

I'm glad to hear that you are using a variety of sources and ways of representing a building, such as plan, elevation, views, etc. If you haven't already done so, consider the sequence of images to give the effect of moving through a building or site, as well as the need for comparisons to other works -- essentially the art/arch historical approach.
ReplyDeleteIf you are a member of the SAH, the new image resource site -- SAHARA -- has lots of potential. Also Google images of course has lots to offer. One advantage to Flickr is that the photographer clarifies the user's rights for use.
