Okay, you're going strong! Let's see how well we can do on this collaborative asynchronous task.
How long do you think it would take to create a digital map that shows the global spread of our families for two generations? The map would need show political markers (city names, borders) and geographic markers (forests, deserts, mountains).
My guess is that it will take each of you about 20 minutes.
The map below will be updated automatically, whenever someone in this class adds a location.
When you've finished, write about 350 words reflecting on this activity. You don't need to answer these questions one by one, but think about these things....

- Log into your Gmail account. (Your @auca account should work.)
- Open this link.
- Click on "Enter" (as shown in the picture below).
- Then, add the places where everyone in your immediate family (parents, husbands, wives, children) has lived for two generations. That means, if you're single, mark where you, your parents, and your siblings have lived. If you're married, mark where you, your spouse, and your children have lived. Only mark places you have lived for at least a month.
The map below will be updated automatically, whenever someone in this class adds a location.
When you've finished, write about 350 words reflecting on this activity. You don't need to answer these questions one by one, but think about these things....
- What did you learn during this activity?
- What did you feel during this activity? How could that relate to how your students feel with digital learning?
- How could you use an activity like this to teach humanities? To teach STEM? To teach citizenship?
- How could you do an activity like this without using digital technology?
Then reply to at least 3 of your colleagues.
