Dear LOR user,

Thank you for being a big part of this community. To better support the initiatives around open educational resources in the state of Michigan, all resources on the Michigan Virtual Learning Object Repository (LOR) are being moved to #GoOpen Michigan (link is external) on September 30th, 2018. During the transition, our LOR will be moved to an archived state, not allowing new user registration or new content to be added. An email with more details was sent to registered users of the LOR in September. To make use of the great resources on the platform, we encourage you to create an account and add your own new resources to the #GoOpen Michigan platform (link is external).

Timeline JS

https://timeline.knightlab.com/
Description: 

Timeline JS allows teachers or students to create a timeline with links to images, articles and videos that can easily be embedded into a site or shared with a link. 

What We Like: 
  • Create a timeline with more links to more resources
  • Clean look and feel
  • No login needed
Limitations: 
  • Creating the timeline for the first time is a bit tricky technically
  • Do need to have a Google Drive account
Classroom Application: 
Create a timeline at the beginning of a unit for social studies students
Ask students to create their own timelines
