Lesson 8 ArchiveGrid and CAMIO
1. I learned that Sitting Bull, also known as Tatanka Iyotake or Tatanka Iyotanka or Ta-Tanka I-Yotan, was a Native American shaman and leader of the Hunpapa Sioux. He fought against the Crow Indians and was wounded in battle on several occasions. Sitting Bull greatly opposed the encroachment of the white men. He led Sioux and Cheyenne warriors against U.S. soldiers of the 7th Cavalry at the battle of Little Bighorn. After the battle, in which many were killed, Sitting Bull led his tribe into Canada, where they lived until surrendering to U.S. forces. After his capture he toured with Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show. Sitting Bull was killed while resisting arrest for his unwillingness to abandon the traditions of the ritual Ghost Dance, which had been outlawed.
2. I performed a search about efficiency because it is what we are currently studying in Physical Science, which is the subject I teach at the high school. There were 2133 various articles about efficiency, which I could get from Universities our of California or all the way to the University of Virginia. Pretty overwhelming.
CAMIO
1. I see various items from Paul Revere. I looked at prints, spoons, and tea sets.
2. After typing in Sioux, I noticed all kinds of items created by the Sioux Indian Tribe
3. My favorite artist is Thomas Kinkade. I could not find anything about him. It looks like a limitation of the site is artists of the modern era.
4. I will be honest I really don't know how I or the community would use this resource. The only time I could see using this is when presenting a concept or a research paper, I could show some of these as visuals with my research.
Common Core:
I am sorry, but I don't feel this site would help me in teaching physical science or presenting information about physical science.
Hi, Adam, thanks for your work here. We think that ArchiveGrid is great for researchers who are able to travel to institutions that own special material, while CAMIO is a way to bring museum collections to us. You're right--there are not many contemporary artists or art works included here, which may be because of institutions' agreements with the artists or their estates, or may be because they want people to see them in their museum in person. South Dakota artists aren't represented either. We showed curricular connections with social studies. I have heard some interesting math connections. Honesty is the best policy, and it may be a stretch to find physical science connections. Students could find images here to represent physical science concepts, such as waves. Thanks for your comments!
