Finding resources while building my PLN

As part of developing our Personal Learning Network we are encouraged to read and comment on other students' blog posts. Michelle Thompson is a fellow EDC3100 student that commented on my "how and why ICTs can be used in education" post. So I decided to check out her Blog to discover a wealth of resource suggestions throughout her posts. Michelle's Blog is well worth a look!

One of the "finds" that Michelle has written about is called Time Toast, an interactive timeline creator. As my assignment two focus is on a unit in history, this is a website that could be very useful. My unit plan is for year four students and this program can be used by the students when creating a timeline of an explorer. The reader can toggle between a visual view or a text view, insert pictures and write descriptions of events.

Thank you Michelle for helping me build my ICT Toolbox!
