How To Stop Mouth Roof Bleed

HISTORY THROUGH TIME LINE

After studying at Secondary 2 multilingual reality of Spain thought to develop an activity that visually and collect all the different events history of English as a result of a small research project, and I suggested to my students develop a timeline with TimeRime . The choice of tool is not coincidental that I knew looked to develop a chronological axis, but I found Dipity, the more visually appealing, does not create long lines in excess of 500 years. To this is added the difficulty of being in English, a handicap for students who produce an initial rejection of their use. (Note: later I met a new tool with very good looking to create interactive timelines call Tiki-toki ).
The work schedule was as follows: I divided the students into groups of 4, and through a Google Docs Blog inserted in the classroom I provided a table that should download and complete by searching and selecting information from various web pages. With the data collected, each group should make a timeline online inputting, in addition to information obtained representative images and multimedia files optionally. TimeRime not complicated to use, but not lost in any step to develop a simple tutorial:


Working in teams of four students divided into two computers, it was necessary that they be organized to share the work previously. In a couple of groups teamwork has been an excuse for the lazy will rely on the efforts of their colleagues, although they knew that the note would be individual and proportional to the work of each. Elsewhere, however, teamwork has helped make the task more effectively and to share and exchange views and ideas that have improved the outcome.
Here are some examples. If you put the cursor over the images will expand the content: Ainara
