Graphic Syllabus<\/strong><\/p>\n

Piktochart<\/a> – Service to make graphic syllabi or infographics.\u00a0 You can make 5 resources for free after that there is a yearly fee.\u00a0 Here are a couple of examples I’ve made, one is from my U.S. Women’s History<\/a> class and the other is from my U.S. survey course – The Foundations of Modern America<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Classroom Engagement<\/strong><\/p>\n

JeopardyLabs<\/a> – Online\u00a0 jeopardy template that allows you to enter questions and answers into the program for play in-class.\u00a0 I’ve used it as a means to engage students with out-of-class readings and break-up a standard seminar style discussion.\u00a0 You can see my Jeopardy Board for the historiography readings on Marxism<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Foundations Timeline<\/a> – Uses H5P.com<\/a> timeline content type<\/a> that allows you to build a chronological sequence of events. For each event, you may add images and texts, including assets from Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, Vimeo, Google Maps and SoundCloud.\u00a0 I created this one for my HIS 120: Foundations of Modern America Class.<\/p>\n

Dominion of New England Maps<\/a> – Uses\u00a0 an H5P. com image blender (Agamotto<\/a>) to easily demonstrate changes on maps or images.\u00a0 I’ve created one to show New England colonies before, during, and after the Dominion of New England.<\/p>\n

Patriotic Ladies at Edenton in North Carolina<\/a> – Uses H5P.com<\/a> Image Hotspots content type<\/a> to\u00a0 add information pop-ups to images.\u00a0 This is an excellent tool for explaining political cartoons and other complex images.<\/p>\n

English Bill of Rights 1689 <\/a>– Uses H5P.com<\/a> Drag and Drop content type<\/a> to create activities that allows students to link certain types of content together.\u00a0 In this activity I take a difficult to understand document and have students link a more understandable definition to the difficult phrases\/passages in the document.<\/p>\n

United States Constitution, 1789 <\/a>uses H5P.com<\/a> course presentation content type<\/a> to provide an interactive US Constitution with dialogue boxes that asks students questions about the original US Constitution.<\/p>\n

Comics and Juvenile Delinquency in the 1950s <\/a>uses several different types of H5P.com<\/a> content to provide interactive activities about how the comic book industry was linked to rising juvenile crime rates in the 1950s.<\/p>\n

The Industrial Revolution and the Family Economy<\/a> uses H5P.com<\/a> course presentation content type <\/a>to examine the impact of the Industrial Revolution on American families.<\/p>\n

Video Lecturing<\/strong><\/p>\n

One way to spice up an online lecture is to add a short animation to explain a concept.\u00a0 One of the easy animation tools I’ve discovered is Mysimpleshow.com<\/a>.\u00a0 It allows you to build a short clipart type of animation with a computer voice over or one that you do yourself.\u00a0 These animations can then be used to spice up an online lecture.\u00a0 Here are a couple that I’ve created: Origins of the Civil Rights Movement<\/a> and The American System<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
