A list of online resources for teaching Jewish arts and culture

Storyboard That is a cutting edge Web 2.0 tool for rapidly creating amazing storyboards, no art skills needed. Great for business meetings and in the classroom for students to express their creativity. LL Note: If you want to print out the free version storyboard, it puts a big digital watermark across your pictures. I found a work-around for that: take a screen shot, then edit that picture as you need to. Short term, for small projects, it's workable. If I were going to use this on a regular basis, I'd ask my school to get us a subscription. It calls itself a storyboard program, but it really works much more like a comic strip. But it could be very useful for brainstorming in class. You can make 3 free storyboards a week, which might be enough for many of us. It's really easy to use, and you can customize some of the features with your choice of color.

A curriculum for middle and high school students using the work of photographer Zion Ozeri to explore diverse Jewish communities and their traditions. Students then focus on their own communities - documenting their communal values on film and curating on-site exhibits of their work. The project culminates with an exhibition that ties together the work of students from all participating schools. For educators and students, the website provides links to the sites of world Jewish communities, American history, the Talmud, Jews and photography and photography for social change.
