Where are the following images from? Match the letters on the images with the choices given. The correct answers are highlighted below and details regarding these astronaut's images can be obtained by clicking on place name. Ideas are given below on how to create this type of exercise for your students.

Practical Ideas

1. Visit NASA Photo Gallery. NASA images may be used by students for projects if reference is given to the source.

2. Open a WordPad page for html code or open your favorite webpage composer.

3. Find the category and visit an image. Left click on the image and a menu will appear. Go to "Save Image As" and direct the image to go into a file (create one called ESimages!). Give the image a name you will remember (e.g., such as "wichita" instead of the NASA name of "STS090-731-066"). Finish the process by clicking on "Save."

4. Insert the image using the appropriate code on your WordPad page (e.g., img src="name of image.proper extension") or the point and click of a composer software. The size of the image may need adjusting for your page.

5. Before leaving the page where the image was obtained, go to "Location" at the top of the page and highlight the URL. Go to "edit," "copy," and finally "paste" this URL into the WordPad page you are working on (e.g., a href="http://URL">URL /a). This is creating the citation for proper referencing and will help you locate the site again.
