Resources

Camera or phone
Pens or pencils
A4 paper

Instructions

Before you begin
================
Prepare the cameras or smartphones – review the photos which might already be on them, and consider restricting access to apps and putting phones on airplane mode (if applicable).
Make sure that the person leading the activity knows how to use all of the cameras or smartphones.

Use the camera
===============
1) Split into small groups, and give each group a camera or smartphone, some paper, and a pen.
2) Each group should try to do the following:
change the mode
change the settings
use the zoom function
transfer photos to another device
The person leading the activity can help groups if needed.
3) Groups should create instructions that explain how to do each of the tasks on their device. They can write and/or draw these.
4) Groups should swap instructions (and devices) with another group.
5) Then, groups should follow the instructions they have been given – can they use them to take a black and white photo? Can they take a close up photo from far away?
