With Adobe Spark , students can create three different types of products: Posts and graphics (great for memes, inspirational quotes, announcements, invites and more), Web Stories (great for photo journals, event recaps, portfolios, etc), and Video (presentations, lessons, and more).
Images can be uploaded or pulled from Google Photos, but there is a built-in images search function, too that locates Creative Common licensed images from Flickr and Pixabay.
This badge focuses on Student POST / PAGE creation.
