Click here to view my tutorial on the Encyclopedia of Alabama found in the Alabama Virtual Library.
The Encyclopedia of Alabama is a great resource of information on - you guessed it - the state of Alabama. The database includes articles on a variety of topics, and photographs and videos are often included. The database can be used by all learner age groups, though I expect it to be most useful to those in upper elementary or older. It would be a great resource for a 4th grade trivia game or digital scavenger hunt of Alabama History. Not only would the site provide answers and increase state awareness, the game would provide opportunity to strength skills such as online searching and scanning information.
Great demonstration of the Encyclopedia of Alabama, Tori! I think your video was great in showing not only how to navigate the site, but how to find articles, pictures, and videos.
