= = =**Why I chose this Web 2.0 tool and how I would use it in the classroom? **= ====**I chose this tool because I loved making timelines when I was a younger student! I found this to be a creative way to engage students in a history assignment and enhance the timeline experience for my future students. By using this tool, my students will be able to engage in a more interactive way of presenting their information. By adding nice pictures and videos to their timeline and sharing it online, my students will be encouraged to create quality work. **====
