After seeing a Tweet between my PLN friend @PintoBeanz11 and @Onejollyday I was inspired with the idea of using a Google Calendar for a memory time capsule. I think it would be fun to smash Christine’s idea for capturing memories in Slides by attaching it to a Google Calendar Event with a notification scheduled for a Student’s Graduation month and year. This way when the graduation date comes around the student will receive an email or pop-up notification reminding them of the Time Capsule Google Calendar Event.
A teacher can enhance this “Memory Time Capsule” by recording and attaching either an audio or video interview to the event. It might be fun for the students to watch and hear the ideas they had as a youth. Some students may even discover they are on the pathway to meeting their “Childhood Dreams”!
