The
Web is rich in images. If you copy and include the image in something
you write, the origin of the image should be acknowledged. In a formal
paper, you would write a full citation for it. At the minimum, you
need to give the title of the Web site and the complete URL (you can
just copy and paste the URL into your Word document -- Ctrl C
to copy; Ctrl V to paste).
Use
one of these methods to get an image:
-
Go
to Google and click on 
and type in a search term
-
-
-
Once
you have your image --
- Right
click on the image; scroll down to Save Image As (or Save
Picture As) and click (left click)
- If
you are using a public computer (e.g., in the Library classroom),
save the image to the Desktop. If you're on your own computer,
you can save it where you want!
- You
can rename the image if you want. Save it with a .jpg (for
photographs and images with lots of detail), or a .gif
(other images) extension.
- Go
to your Word document. (For most of you, that would
be Start -> Word)
- Click
on Insert on the toolbar at the top of the screen
- Go
to Picture. Select From File
- Go
to the Desktop (or wherever you saved your image) and click
on your image to insert it.
- Under
(or near) the image, type the word Source and include the
title of the Web site and its complete URL.
Your
image is there. You can write next to and below the
image. To put text around the image -- click on the image,
go to Format -> Picture. Click on Wrapping tab, and
select the wrapping format you want.
Here's an example of a Word document with
two images.
