Image Map Activity

With the Image Map Activity, you can give students an image with specific parts you want them to be able to identify by clicking on that spot (unlimited). They can practice as many times as they want.

See online example.

Activity image best practice:

Recommended image size 740 px width x 240 px height to fill slide without a scrollbar.

A scrollbar will be available to view content that expands more than 740 pixel width or 255 pixel height.

To maintain image quality, crop the image dimensions using any image editor (ex. Paint/Paintbrush).

If an image is re-sized but not cropped to match pixel dimensions, the image may be stretched or squeezed to fit which can degrade the image quality.
