=Students - Step 4 Creating=

In partners, you have been working on answering the question - //**In the future, would someone looking back at the decade 2000-2010 think it was a time of chaos or advancement?**// Now that you have researched and gathered pertinent information, it is time to create a product to share with the class. Remember: you may have to revise and edit until you get what you need.

You may use any of these Web 2.0 tools that we have learned this year to do so. Each one has a slightly different requirement, so make sure you read all the choices before you decide. Toondoo Wiki Glogster

You may also use Windows Movie Maker.

Please see Mrs. Richards __right away__ if any of this presents a problem for you.

Toondoo
Using your account at toondoo (hint: your student email), you and your partner will be creating a 12 panel minimum comic book on your choice of either CHAOS or ADVANCEMENT.
 * panel 1 should be your 'titlepage' - with your names on it and choice **remember to choose PRIVATE** when creating
 * panels 2-11 should be your information
 * panel 12 is credits - where did you get pictures, information
 * Then place it in book form and email link to your teacher. (Get help if you don't remember how to do this)

Wiki
You and your partner need only **one** wiki, so decide which account you will be using. Login at wikispaces (your student email) to begin. You will be creating an media rich wiki on your choice.
 * Home page - has your names (first initial, last name) and topic
 * each of your elements should have its own page (example: War page, Science page, etc)
 * Write up your findings and place on the correct page (you may use 1st person)
 * Find for each page: a youtube video to add, a graphic and a website URL

Glogster
You and your partner need only **one** glogster page so decide which account you will be using. Login at glogster (your student email) to begin. You will be creating an media rich glog on your choice.
 * your topic choice must be noticeable
 * your names (Initials only) must be somewhere
 * each element of your choice needs its own graphic
 * you need to have each graphic linked to information (can be a caption)
 * add music
 * add a video that matches your topic

 * It is ready to hand in? or are there any other items you can consider to include/exclude?
