Take a journey through images, videos, articles, and interviews to discover the era of Dominican dictator Rafael Trujillo. This playlist will build your understanding of his regime and prepare you to read Julia Alvarez's novels Before We Were Free and In the Time of the Butterflies.

Join us in a "Consultancy for a Playlist with XPs and Badges" https://goo.gl/ybtU8j that we've been developing to support each other as we build online experiences on LRNG for youth to use on Youth Voices. Join us at http://edtechtalk.com/ttt at 9PM ET/6PM PT.

Prehaps this is a good time to be studying an autocrat.

Christina: Here is the protocol we are using/testing here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1PfZteT7qX-7HZhGbSMZv3xgDjZP18gx32kMv6bAB9IQ/edit#
21:26 The real Chris Rogers...: I like that! "overcoming Trujillo" is a suggestion I have. Recognizing people fought against, his fall wouldn't have been possible without.
21:27 Grace Raffaele: Hi. Sorry to join late and only in chat....I am intrigued how this can be a humanities-like exploration beginning in the history and then (maybe?) moving into the literature.Not sure yet if the literature reading is part of the Playlist.
21:30 Grace Raffaele: I know ELL students at the school where I work would be welcomed into conversing with and responding to these images.
21:35 Grace Raffaele: I agree about leaving out the ELL in the description. We talked at another time about a meta-layer for teachers that might mention this to them, but not make it part of the XP description.
21:40 Grace Raffaele: Could the comments be focused on literal versus analytical ones. I notice... comments and This makes me think... comments.
21:41 Grace Raffaele: Yes, Louise, the gallery walk format does so much!
21:42 Grace Raffaele: I love the sentence starters!
21:43 Grace Raffaele: Sort the sentence starters and say use a few from each group... some literal, some analytical.
21:48 Grace Raffaele: Could hey be asked to refer to one quote in the text to support what they are saying in any way?
21:55 Grace Raffaele: I will definitely go back to this Playlist to look more closely. I think students could recover credit in their humanities class with this Playlist.
21:55 Grace Raffaele: Thank you Louise! Sorry I have to go...
