Introduction 

"Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history."

Imagine that a time machine has whisked you back to the Civil War.  Slavery! Territories! Union! Confederate! President Lincoln! America is at war ! Brothers fighting against each other! We need to remember history’s mistakes, or we will repeat it. Therefore, it is YOUR job to accept this quest to compose a multimedia Scrapbook to describe the different experiences of life during the Civil War to help us remember the past.

You will be working in teams which represent different elements of society.  Group members take on different roles and collect information, images, and insights from  the Internet, and then "paste" them into a multimedia Scrapbook (a HyperStudio stack) to share your learning with others.
