Hi everyone teacher paul with crazy here and in
- 00:03 - 00:04
this video we're going to take a look how to
- 00:04 - 00:07
use present design to create timelines and then how
- 00:07 - 00:11
to use those timelines effectively as part of instruction.
- 00:11 - 00:16
So let me share my screen with you so you can see what I am talking about.
- 00:16 - 00:22
And here's an example of a poster that our designers made about the U. S.
- 00:22 - 00:24
Entering World War Two.
- 00:24 - 00:27
Um I usually like to use posters in
- 00:27 - 00:30
an interactive way in the classroom where students
- 00:30 - 00:34
are adding their own voice to it rather than just being decoration on the wall.
- 00:34 - 00:36
Um An example of that would be,
- 00:36 - 00:41
students might add more details about World War Two to post it
- 00:41 - 00:45
notes and then post them on november 1st or january 30th.
- 00:45 - 00:48
Or you might even make room for other events as well.
- 00:48 - 00:51
Of course this is also editable very easily.
- 00:51 - 00:56
Here's a piece that I did or I'm currently doing around flora and fauna evolution.
- 00:56 - 01:01
Um notice I have pre Cambrian here and all this
- 01:01 - 01:03
other stuff around World War Two is going away.
- 01:04 - 01:07
All I have to do is click on these different things
- 01:07 - 01:09
and so here's one I would need to put in,
- 01:09 - 01:14
can breathe in for example um and then I can add
- 01:14 - 01:18
text for this and if I click text you'll notice that
- 01:18 - 01:22
I can add captions or subtitles I think with this one
- 01:22 - 01:26
I will call it may be a body of a text.
- 01:26 - 01:31
Um notice that after I close out of that I have it right here
- 01:31 - 01:33
and let me just grab that
- 01:33 - 01:35
and move it down here
- 01:36 - 01:39
And I'm going to type in that this was
- 01:39 - 01:41
five,
- 01:41 - 01:43
million
- 01:43 - 01:44
years
- 01:45 - 01:51
I go um notice too that I can grab it and make it bigger so it's
- 01:51 - 01:55
more aligned to the fawn up there and then I can also move the box around.
- 01:55 - 02:00
Of course, I'll also want to add an image. So I go over to graphics, I do upload an image
- 02:01 - 02:06
and here's one of Cambrian uh Cambrian creature
- 02:06 - 02:10
and all I have to do with this one is also resize
- 02:10 - 02:15
it down to the proper shape and then place it accordingly.
- 02:15 - 02:18
Um notice you can do other things here too.
- 02:18 - 02:24
Like you can add graphics and charts, you can add maps and you can even add videos.
- 02:24 - 02:29
So if you create an electronic file you can embed videos right into this anyway,
- 02:29 - 02:32
you get the gist of what this is like.
- 02:32 - 02:34
Um I think you'll have a great time creating,
- 02:34 - 02:36
especially if you're doing it with your class and
- 02:36 - 02:39
we really look forward to seeing what you produce,
- 02:39 - 02:41
especially if you share it with us.
- 02:41 - 02:45
Um Anyway, have fun creating and we will see you real soon. Bye bye.
