SoL: 9th Grade History WHI.6J: Students will be able to cite various contributions made by Roman culture onto Western culture such as architecture, literature, technology, science, and medicine.
Web Tool: Image Blogs
Other Skills: Students will get practice with using the web to perform research, and practice with the use of creating image blogs to share information with the world.
Lesson Plan: The students have been asked to create a “virtual museum” tour using an Image blog. The set up will be that these “museums” will be created to help students who are unable to go on field trips to museums for one reason for another. What they will do is surf the web looking for images that would represent their exhibits. Then they will use the tag section function to point to various parts of the images and make notes explaining to the visitor what the exhibit is, and the important information they will need to take away from it. In this case they will be working individually to construct series of 12 “exhibits” illustrating important impacts Rome made on modern Western culture. These images will be posted in a series.
