Hi,
Just a quick link today to show you this video called The Civil War in Four Minutes:
I’m off to the National Educational Computing Conference where I will be presenting a poster session on Using Technology to Teach the Civil War and Sarah will be presenting Civil War Sallie as part of the Student Showcase.
I hope to pick up some ideas while I am there for more posts and discussions.
Enjoy…
UPDATE November 2023 – The YouTube video is no longer available and is copyrighted by the Abraham Lincoln Presidental Library.
Thank you so much for this wonderful resource. Hope you have a fun, productive time at the NECC- enjoy and learn lots!

Video made for the Lincoln library for EDUCATIONAL purposes. Hooowever, it’s now nowhere to be found on the interwebs due to copyright issues. Great. So to utilize this wonderful resource in the classroom I have to fly my students to Springfield?? Come on.
The Lincoln Museum in Springfield, IL is now selling DVD copies of this movie. I just picked up a copy last weekend. A wonderful example of data visualization.
