Here is a list of web 2.0 tools that will be useful for creating your original artifact about your historical figure. You can download an app for many of these tools so that you can work and create from your mobile device. This is just a short list with examples of tools that can be used for different purposes. If you find a different tool that you would like to use to create your artifact, let's discuss it in class. If others would like to use the tool I will add it to this list.
