_"Not to know what has been transacted in former times is to be always ignorant. If no use is made of the labors of past ages, the world must
remain always in the infancy of knowledge."

Google Chrome Apps:
This presentation was a great way to allow students to explore different apps that Google Chrome offers. This allowed for students to work collaboratively on one document, and then present the various ways that Google Chrome apps can be used in the classroom. Not only has our understanding of the Google Chrome apps increased , but we also learned that there are a variety of ways to implement apps into a classroom setting to create a fun learning environment for our students.
Tri-fold Presentation:
For one of my education classes, I made an interactive tri-fold board regarding Cold War hotspots, such as the Vietnam War, the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Korean War, and the conflict in Afghanistan. On my board, I created four photo albums for each Cold War hotspot. Students would have to take Polaroid pictures out of the attached folder, and place them in the album that they belong in. Each Polaroid picture has detailed information or pictures, which students must analyze and place in the correct album. In my classroom, I would create an interactive tri-fold board for several topics that I would teach throughout the year, and put them on display in the classroom. I would encourage students to do the interactive activity that the tri-fold board provides. Also, I believe that by having fun, creative things in the classroom, it allows for a better classroom environment, ultimately adding to the success of each student.
