National Archives Experience

It was exciting to discover the National Archives Experience.   The National Archives is located in Washington, D.C. on Constitution Avenue, but for those of us who are not close enough to visit on a regular visit, they have created The National Archives Experience.  It is an amazing online tool that students can use to create posters and videos. The National Archives Digital Vault creation tools allow students to drag and drop digital artifacts into a poster or video. The National Archives provides images, documents, and audio in an easy to use editor. When making a poster students can combine multiple images, change background colors, and create captions to make collages of digital artifacts.

 In addition to creating posters, students can create videos.   You simply drag your images onto the editing templates, type captions, create image duration of play and select audio tracks.
