While I’m teaching my next class, the images are downloading to the perfect folder on my computer. I take the pictures during my breaks or during a class, use the app to send them to my computer, go to the website on my computer, type in the 6 digit number, and receive. In the past, I sent pictures to myself via email… but that is so last year!! Send-anywhere is such a time-saver. This app and website work beautifully for transferring images and videos from any smart phone or iPad to a computer. Īfter I took the pictures of the children with my iPhone or camera, I uploaded them to my desktop using.

If I had to do it again, I would use a green screen to take the pictures.

It was, but the pictures had a beige background that blended with their skin tone making removing it difficult. In the real world it didn’t work out that way! 🙂 I thought that lining the kids up in the hallway would be really easy. Because I wanted to put mustaches and glasses on my children, it would have been much easier to have taken the pictures in front of a green screen or solid blue background. Some photos were taken in the hallway with a beige background, others were taken in a classroom with a busy background, and still others were taken in front of a plain blue bulletin board. It is augmented reality and it is uber-cool! My next post will give much more detail, but here is a snippet of what happens when an image is scanned by Aurasma.Īs I will explain in a few minutes, I took pictures of each of my eighty 4th graders. When scanned with the Aurasma app, these images trigger the linked video of the child playing his/her best piece. To display the wonderful work of my students, I created a “Wall of Fame” and each child’s picture is a trigger image much like a QR code. In my last post I mentioned all of the emails that are being sent back and forth as my recorder students pass off their pieces from home.

Aurasma Trigger images and SMART Notebook Software work well together! Pictures on the board change frequently as Black Belts are earned.
