<div dir="ltr">Just to let you all know what I found in my search for an iPad-downloadable image collection:<div><br></div><div>Probably the best resource people suggested with the SIL "Art of Reading" image set. These are black-and-white line drawings of everyday objects, plants, animals and actions. Some are rather culturally specific, but others more general.</div><div>AoR lives here: <a href="https://bloomlibrary.org/artofreading">https://bloomlibrary.org/artofreading</a></div><div>That link doesn't provide a folder of image files directly, but rather installs a program that comes with a folder full of images, thousands of them. I then picked out about 400 images that seemed well suited to my purposes in northern Australia, and have put them up here:</div><div><a href="https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1vlViepQQamsB_svgFSNCiHEIsCi09uUG?usp=sharing">https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1vlViepQQamsB_svgFSNCiHEIsCi09uUG?usp=sharing</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>Another interesting resource is image sets put together by research psychologists. These include lots of "everyday objects", but then seem to involve a lot of industrial artefacts (like ironing boards etc), which made these less useful for me because there are no (local) words for most of these things in Australian Indigenous languages. Anyway you can browse some of these sets here:</div><div><a href="https://www.cogsci.nl/stimulus-sets">https://www.cogsci.nl/stimulus-sets</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>Thanks to Cathy Bow, Rosey Billington, John Giacon, Simon De Deyne and Carolyn Barker</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, 16 Jul 2019 at 10:52, John Mansfield <<a href="mailto:jbmansfield@gmail.com">jbmansfield@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><span style="color:rgb(28,30,33);font-family:system-ui,-apple-system,system-ui,".SFNSText-Regular",sans-serif;font-size:14px">I would like to download a set of generic images (or stock photos) for use in a language activity. </span><div><br style="color:rgb(28,30,33);font-family:system-ui,-apple-system,system-ui,".SFNSText-Regular",sans-serif;font-size:14px"><span style="color:rgb(28,30,33);font-family:system-ui,-apple-system,system-ui,".SFNSText-Regular",sans-serif;font-size:14px">I need about 100-500 images, to be downloaded repeatedly onto several iPads.
