learning and growing...

my students helping each other out with Gimp. I showed the kids how to edit their photos last night using Gimp as the main tool because it is free and easy enough for them to understand.  The challege is to help them to understand the functions of the tool in Thai because they don't read or write English that well.  Some of them really caught on just by watching the other kids learn.  I wrote the steps on the white board in English and they write their notes in Thai after I translate it to them in Thai.  My Thai isn't that great, but thank goodness for dictionaries.   Here they are at the AYUI Youth Hostel.
