Unit 15 & 16: Story Map & Final Project

To be absolutely honest, every single one of the optional assignments seems interesting to me. When I had chosen to do the Graphs and the Story Map projects, those were just the two I could see having the widest range of applications for.

Comparatively, I found the ArcGIS far easier to navigate and understand than the Google Graphs pages. Unfortunately though it seems ArcGIS is not entirely a free account, but as long as it is used for noncommercial use then it is. I hope to explore all they have to offer at a later date.


My final project and it can be found here and also in the side navigation. I hope to continue on this project and further expand the collection of advertisements and then be able to draw some conclusions about the change in their performances and travel patterns. It would be nice to be able to compare the amount of shows in one area and see how that corresponds to the death toll during war time. And while that may be easily found in books, and very easy to understand emotionally, I would like to be able to point to population charts and graphs as proof.

And that I believe concludes all the postings for HIS 218 Digital History at NVCC.
