So, the more I think of it, why not try to convey the sweep, drama and complexity of history by way of image macro? Museums and other history educators are always trying to find ways to communicate to the young. I think I'm actually going to a museum conference in May. I wish I'd thought of this in time to put together a panel!
More to come as I think of them! (I need to figure out how to get the outlining going on my fonts --brushing? is that what it is? that's how bad I am at PowerPoint and how much I have to learn from the thousands and thousands of industrious youth making image macros. Sigh.)
(I am reminded in this project of the people who have converted the great speeches to Powerpoint.)
if you were to update the Inferno now, there would be a special circle of hell that would involve powerpoint.
oh wait! I'm in it!
