Slide Shows

Awesome Stories has an extensive internal database of images, videos, audio-clips and documents.

The site also links, externally, to similar assets owned (or hosted by) third parties (such as national archives, libraries, universities, government-created web sites, news organizations, etc.).

All links (both internal and external) are color-coded for easy recognition:

• Light green          =  images

• Dark green          =  videos

• Dark turquoise   =  text/documents

• Light turquoise   =  audio clips

We have created slide shows for all internal assets.  You will find them on the right side of each chapter.

Post-It notes identify the categories, starting with images.  Begin the slide show with the first item under the first Post-It.  Click "next," at the bottom of each asset page, to view the whole slide show. Click "previous" to recheck an item.

You can also view the assets separately by clicking on anything in the slide-show list.

Because each slide-show page has (or will have) a description of the asset (whether it's an image, video, document or audio-clip), the show operates manually.  You control its speed.  Some descriptions are long; others are short. 

Reference guides are also included in slide-show descriptions.  Where available, links to "Google Books" open specific book pages if a "Full View" of that work is allowed.

The slide show provides a "quick" way to digest a story.

Have Fun!
