In yesterday’s blog post about finding
free images for school projects I mentioned that
Photos for Class offers a free tool for adding their image search tool to your website. You can do a similar thing if you use
Google’s Programmable Search tool to create your own image search engine. Both options enable you to add an image search box directly into any page on your Google Site or any other website builder that allows you to embed third-party content. 

In this new video I demonstrate how to add an image search tool to your Google Site by using Photos for Class and Google Programmable Search. 

Applications for Education

Adding an image search tool into your classroom or library website can be a helpful time-saver to your students. Rather than having to keep track of websites that offer free images or going to Google Images and using the search filters there, students can just go to your website to start their search for free images for their projects.
