Lesson 8

ArchiveGrid

1. I learned that Sitting Bull was also known as Tatanka Iyotake.

2. I searched "Yellowstone National Park. The first result was "Yellowstone Park Company records, 1866-1933". The Montana Historical Society in Helena has this material. This would be a great resource for someone looking for something specific outside of your area. Using this resource, you could direct them to the exact institution that has the materials they are looking for.

CAMIO

1. Items made by Paul Revere: a teaspoon, a sugar bowl & cover, and a federal style tea service.

2. My search for Sioux yielded a variety of results. It came up with photos, paintings, clothing & jewelry, sculptures and many other objects. I think this would be a great resource for teachers to use to show their students how the Native Americans lived!

3. I searched "van Gogh" and a ton of his paintings came up. You could click on the paintings to see larger images. It tells the year, size, & format of the painting. I think this would be a great resource for art teachers to familiarize their students with painting styles of famous artists.

4. I think this would be a great resource for students/patrons researching famous artists, or for art lovers in general to browse! Also, because it tells what museum each piece is in, it could be useful in vacation planning!

5. I searched "photography" and chose 4 images I thought were neat to add to my favorites. After clicking on "View Favorites", those 4 photos were there. I viewed them in a slideshow. Then, I compared images 1 and 3. This would be really neat if you're trying to decide which photo you like more/fits your needs best. I also made a webpage of the images. It showed the photos I had in my favorites. You could also click on them to view larger images.
