More on the History Project
Last year in our AP History classes (3 classes with 48 kids) we decided to try a project after the AP exam. The juniors still have 3 weeks of class and the pressure of the AP is gone. The basic project was to research their topic and then as a group to prepare an electronic museum exhibit The exhibit would also need a one page abstract with an image to be placed in the museum booklet.Parents, younger students and school administrators would be invited.

About Me
I work at a k12 school in instructional technology. We are doing a decent job integrating web2.0. We have used newsvine, googledocs, fleck, flickr, diigo, del.icio.us, wikis, and blogs. We have given up the 11th grade US history exam in favor of a research project that concludes with a tech presentation. Things are good but there is much to learn.

I'm working on getting up to speed with Web 2.0 learning tools by investigating new words that crop up in blogs and forums in this network. I love the sentence in your intro "We have used newsvine, googledocs, fleck, flickr, diigo, del.icio.us, wikis, and blogs." There's 4 new words there for me and I'm off to investigate. Thanks for the leads.
I've been looking for AP teachers using technology. The content is so hard to get in that many teachers don't have time to use technology. We'll have to brainstorm some ideas for the classes. I'd love a collaborative effort.
