TM-Research


 This one is pretty easy! Go to [|http://www.tumblr.com] and follow the directions below. Make sure this becomes a lesson within your unit.

Once you have created the Tumblr research project, you need to include (on your wiki), an embeeded [|Shelfari] with at least five books that would serve as good references for your students to use in doing their research project.

A few things I learned from doing one ( http://drstocker.tumblr.com/  ) (this is my example, although it is not complete--no audio inclusion and no annotations on my made-up websites). 1. Since the posts go in reverse order, I actually did mine in WORD first (placing the sections in the order I wanted them on Tumblr), then added them in reverse order (so that my rubric was the first post and the photo the last post). There IS an option in Tumblr that lets you sort them by the DATE entries are added (and you can date them as you please) if you prefer this option.

2. My photo: I made this by finding two pictures on google image search, putting them into Word, putting a lightbolt (from the "shapes" insert) between them, then clicking on the "print screen" button on my keyboard, then selecting "edit" then selecting just the section of the WORD page I wanted, then saving it to my desktop as a jpg document. 3. R ubric: I would create my own on Rubistar, but in my rush to get this done, I borrowed someone else's!
