Find an image the represents this keyword. For creative commons images, visit [|www.flickr.com] first click on "search" on the top left and then on "advanced search." At the bottom, you can indicate that you want to search for creative commons images only. Use the option of choosing content to "modify, adapt or build upon." Copy and paste the image into your drafts folder. 3. In MSWord, write a 250 word reflection that tells why you chose the image, what it has to do with justice or fairness and how this connects to your own life. Save this reflection in drafts. 4. Create your avatar to represent you on voicethread or your blogs. Do this by visiting http://www.buildyourwildself.com/ where you can choose to create your own wild self. When you are finished, choose the "get a wild desktop" option and then right click on the image that appears and save the image as a jpeg in your drafts folder. You may add this image to your blog, with or without cropping.
