Franklin Remixed: Ben
– the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly - This website is the
end result of a middle school project whose goal was to deepen
students understanding of Benjamin Franklin. The process involved
immersion in lessons and activities involving Philadelphia based
exhibitions and lessons designed specifically for it. Once students
acquired content knowledge, they learned to use such technology
tools as Blogs, Flickr, and Podcasting in order to create the online
exhibition.
The final outcome resulted in the design and development of this
excellent online exhibition for Middle School students by Middle
School students.
