EduPic Graphical Resource was launched in September 2006 as a source of free images for teachers and their students. Now with over 6000 different photographs and education illustrations, EduPic is used everyday all over the world. All the photographs are taken, and all the drawing and web publishing is done, outside of my day job as an educational professional. The images on EduPic are "free for use by educational professionals and the students they serve without permission." Educational professionals would include those persons employed by a school, public or private, and college or university, (i.e. teachers, media specialists, administrators, etc.) with regular direct contact with students. Students may use the images on EduPic for any educational purpose, even in published and distributed works, such as a student created website or conference poster. Educational use would also include public service education such as might be done by environmental education centers, churches, and other non-profit organizations. If you are not sure, please ask. I enjoy getting emails from people who want to use my images!
