TimeToast – timeline creation

Published in Middle Grades, Science, Senior Grades, Social Studies on May 30, 2012

I found this nifty tool the other day when researching cell phone evolution. TimeToast allows a user (sign-up required) to create interactive timelines that can be viewed in a Flash environment or a text-based list. Students can enter text, images and links for any event on the timeline and there is a function to create a span of time for longer events. Once the timeline is published, it can be shared. For younger students, it might be good to have a classroom account.

  • Thinking of Using Dropbox?

    One way you can help me out is to use my link to sign up for DropBox. If you sign up from here by clicking the link above, the bonus for me is that I get a bit more space to use in my work. And I'm eternally grateful for the boost! -Pete

  • Belize Literacy Program

    In November 2012, members of the Belize Ministry of Education, principals, and lead teachers met in each of the six districts for two days of conversations and discussions around the challenges and next steps in integrating technology to support teaching and learning in Belize. The sessions highlighted global trends and challenges from the K-12 Horizon Report, the National Education Technology Standards (NETS) for students, teachers, and administrators, as well as an overview of the content from the August 2012 technology workshop for teachers.
