The article that I read on digital imagery was very interesting. Many classrooms over the past fifty or so years have lacked in the "realistic" mind capturing areas. Students need to be intrigued and be able to place themselves in the place or subject area that they are learning about. Digital cameras and imagery is used worldwide to enhance visual literacy. Many students are visual learners and require a detailed realistic picture to push their minds to the max. I am a very big fan of using digital imagery in the classrooms, it could be used by students and educators to paint a more realistic picture for everyone. Text books and videos lack the realistic view that digital images have, digital cameras with a high mega pixel count are ideal.
I know that many schools have digital cameras availale for teachers and students to check out of the media center and use to help enhance their levels of education.
One way that I would take digital imagery to a higher level or means is to allow learners to use digital cameras to create storyboards, or in projects to create visual means to their presentation.

I too am a big fan of digital imagery as I am a visual learner. Not only do digital cameras help with creating more realistic visual pictures, but they also make work more fun. A project where you have to take pictures is more appealing to student than a project where you have to read or write a paper.
