This is a Google Slide presentation ideal for using with educators. I would use this as a fall kick off to the school year in informing teachers about copyright and resources available to them and their students.

Video from Kansas State Libraries on how to choose a good topic covering personal interest, creativity, and not being too broad.

Think about this in terms of libraries: "Art and history are something you do, not just something you learn about. By inviting people to actively participate with us in co-creating programming, we empower them as creative agents, cultural producers, and people for whom the museum is a relevant, compelling partner. Being a strong community hub requires bringing people together across difference, encouraging bridging experiences instead of targeting a specific audience. When we work with diverse collaborators, from opera singers and ukelele players to knitters and graffiti artists, we catalyze new partnerships and relationships that make our community stronger and more cohesive. We believe in fearless experimentation. It is only by trying things out, challenging our assumptions, and analyzing the results that we can adapt and thrive in a changing world."

Apple's Everyone Can Create series a phenomenal resource that I have utilized in the past. If your school is 1:1 with iPads, you have to check these out! The only thing you need is your Apple ID. The books lead you through a series of lessons/activities where you create a creative project and also learn tips and tricks (or a basic how-to) of the different Apple Create Apps. I have also utilized this with students grades 4-5. They were able to follow the directions and complete the activities independently. This is one of my favorite Apple resources!
