Digital photography is great! It has many uses in the education arena. I've used digital photography many times.  I have a group of students who were taught how to use the camera  and they take photos of most of the school activities. We create adigital yearbook published by Lifetouch. My student photographers take photos of students and the students are able to create cover pages and various other projects using their own personal photos. They  are able to sign the camera out and use it to  complete all types of projects.
