==== = = =**Assignment 2: The French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars are very confusing, in an effort to clear up this confusion we will create an interactive timeline by creating a slideshow and embedding it into the Class Wiki!**=
 * =**The Timeline will have visual as well as written components.**=
 * =**Each student will choose three events, they will find an appropriate image to correspond with the event, and will provide a brief caption detailing the significance of this event.**=
 * =**A list of potential events has been generated, however you are free to choose any not listed if you can provide information on its importance.**=
 * =Events must be placed in chronological order, and this may require communication between students. Feel free to use the discussion page of the wiki, the moodle forums, or outside blogs to collaboratively create the timeline.=

= = = = = **The class Moodle as I envision it is a way for me to communicate with my students. The Moodle site will allow me the flexibility to post articles, grades, homework assignments, study materials and internet links. The class moodle essentially takes the place of the paper syllabus and all of those annoying handouts.** = = = = **The class wiki is different from the Moodle in that it is more of a resource for the students. It is a way for students to hand in homework, or develop a comprehensive set of notes. The Wiki is designed for peer-to-peer viewership. The wiki will be "owned" by the class, they can use it as a tool in a similar way as they would have in the past with pens, paper and textbooks.** = = = = **The use of these technologies will not only help students learn history, but will introduce them to the latest and greatest in computer and web based technologies. By incorporating programs such as moodle, wikispaces, blogs, google docs, amongst others, students will develop the required skills for information retrieval, storage and use in the information age.** =
