Capzles and Dipity are both web-based timeline creators that can help encourage deeper thinking and engagement for students. They are be a great tool to teach history with since they make it so easy to make a visually appealing timeline that also allows you to add huge amounts of information to each "event." The addition of a comments function allows teachers a tool to engage students and facilitate discussion on timeline events.
These could also be used to make a presentation for students. Events could be used instead of slides, and after the presentation students could look at the Dipity for further resources about the information in each event.
Linked below is the Dipity I made for module 8.
