Work individually with StoryMapJS on your memoir.
Using the extracted entities experiment with the data to consider the place names and locations that are identified in your memoir. How does analysis of geo-spatial data help us to make sense of the history of the authors of the memoirs?
- A compiled Story Map of your memoir(s). Although each student is making his/her own StoryMap, you should work with your team members to cover the complete spatial breadth of the memoirs. Each slide should also include notes and textual commentary that incorporates your interpretation of the pages and the data that is available to you within the course map with which you work.
- A 400-450 word blog post with the category “Blog #5″response to this prompt: What can map reveal to us about the history and movements of the authors of the memoirs – and more generally how we can use maps and spatial thinking to help us understand the complexities and nuances of history?
- What does mapping your memoirs reveal? What are the story points you have created for your Story Map JS?
- Include three direct references to the Bodenhamer article with page numbers cited; embed the link to the story map into your post.
- Comment on one of your classmates’ posts (75 words)
