Introduction –

 

Clip Art is a creative tool to use to enhance the visual effect of a project, paper, document, e-mail, hand out, etc… The two easiest ways to find clip art are through direct clip art sites and clip art searches engines.  The direct sites will give you everything and anything you want to use as clip art.  A clip art search engine will dial you into a more specific area of interest within clip art.

In this activity we are going to locate direct clip art sites and clip art search engines.  We will also find out how to copy and paste clip art.  Look though the sites below and then use search engines: Google, Yahoo, Dogpile and any others, to find more clip art and clip art sites and search engines.  Look for clip art that is in your subject area, this will help with the activity later!
