ISTE Global Collaborator- Students use digital tools to broaden their perspectives and enrich their learning by collaborating with others and working effectively in teams locally and globally.
I created a timeline on Tiki-Toki for an intro to the lesson about Utah History. After this lesson it would be the student's turn to create a timeline or slideshow of some sort doing a report about something in Utah's history that they think has helped make Utah the state is is today. I think this would be a fun way to learn about different events in Utah's history. I chose not to "complete" my timeline with a lot of extra facts and pictures about each event because I thought this would be a good was to "kickstart" the project for the students and let them use their resources to find the details about the events they choose to work on.
