Blog Analysis

      I did my Digital Storybook on the Curse of Rasuputin.  There are two Montana State Standards that apply to my story.  The first is standard 2: Students analyze how people create and change structures of power, authority, and governance to understand the opperation of goverment and to demonstrate civic responsibility.  The second standard that seems to fit my story is standard 4: Students demonstrate and understanding of the effects of time, continuity, and change on historical and future perspectives and relationships.
      The learning objective for students watching this digital storybook would be:
          1.  Students will understand the way Grigori Rasputin's fate foreshadowed the future of the Romanov Family.
          2.  Students will understand how to create a presentation that is eye-catching and interesting, without the use of a lecture or notes.
      I would use this digital story during a lesson on the fall of the Romanov Dynasty to give visual representations of the events that occurred and the intense influence that the life of Rasputin had on the Imperial Family.  The relative advantage of having this technology in my classroom is that it would provide a visual that isn't stark and boring, while also showing students that there are alternative ways to present information besides a paper or a group project.
