Building Interactive Timelines

Michelle Rogers, director of the Southeast Michigan Media Lab at SPARK-East, will teach workshop recipients how to create an interactive timeline using the digital tool Dipity. She recently used it to showcase a crowdsourced list of Top Holiday Movies of all time, featuring video clips, a Wikipedia link, description of each movie and the date it was made in the timeline. You can build timelines to illustrate historic moments in time, either in our nation's history or your personal life -- maybe your family or career. Bring your ideas! Michelle will walk you through the process and show you how easy it can be. Your timeline can be shared on social media or embedded on a blog or website.
