  • Free Clip Art from Phillip Martin  Great FREE images from a real artist for webspages, blogs, newsletters, bulletin board, and whatever else you can think of. There are so many categories and topics available (Language Arts, Science, Social Sciences, Holidays, School Stuff, Calendar, and more). There are even some powerpoint and certificate templates.
  • The World Images Kiosk hosted by San Jose State University offers more than 75,000 images that teachers and students can use in their academic projects. All of the images can be used under a Creative Commons license that requires you to give proper attribution when necessary. You can find images by using the search box or you can browse through more than 800 portfolios and groups organized by subject.  A resource like the World Images Kiosk can be a valuable resource as you will know that they can use any image they find in the collection. The images could be used to start a VoiceThread conversation, used in an Animoto video, or used in slide presentation.

    PhotoXpress is a source of free royalty-free stock images. In order to download the images without watermarks you must register for a free account. Once you have registered and completed your profile you can download up to ten images per day. The collection currently contains nearly 350,000 images with many more being added daily. PhotoXpress is a good resource  for students to find free images for their digital presentations.

  • Photos 8 is a great place to find thousands of images that are in the public domain. These images can be used in any way that you and your students see fit. There are twenty-two categories of images of which the largest collections are of animals, birds, and sunsets.
  • William Vann's EduPic Graphical Resource provides free photographs and drawings for teachers and students to use in their classrooms. Mr. Vann is an amateur photograph (a good one at that) and a teacher. Mr. Vann gives permission to teachers and students to use the images in any manner needed for instructional and learning purposes.  The design makes it easy to quickly find the image you need. The science category contains particularly good photos and drawings.
  • Animal Photos is a great source of Creative Commons licensed photos of animals. All of the photos are categorized by animal. Each image indicates the type of Creative Commons license associated with the picture. Animal Photos also offers advice on giving attribution for each photo.
  • Great list of sources for CC and Copyright Free Images...Visual Lit: Where Is It?
  • Morgue File sounds like a website that would feature weird photos and images, but actually it's just an odd name for a good website that provides free photos. The Morgue File photo collection contains thousands of images that anyone can use for free in academic or commercial presentations. The image collection can be searched by subject category, image size, color, or rating.
  • Pics4Learning is a copyright-friendly image library for teachers and students. The Pics4Learning collection consists of thousands of images that have been donated by students, teachers, and amateur photographers. Unlike many Internet sites, permission has been granted for teachers and students to use all of the images donated to the Pics4Learning collection.
  • NeoK12 is a site that has collected educational videos or links to them from YouTube and the like. You can find something from virtually every curricular area. It's a great resource for bringing short (usually 10 minutes or less) videos to your lessons for building background knowledge and for reviewing. I especially like the time lapse videos.
  • This Moment allows users to create a digital collage of an important moment or moments in their lives. Using this moment you can use images and videos from your Facebook, Flickr, Picassa, and YouTube accounts to create your This Moment collage. This Moment also incorporates Google Maps so you can link to the location of where an event took place. Was there a story in the news about your chosen event? If so, you can include links to those news stories. When your collage is complete you can share it on a number of social networking services or embed it in your blog or website.
