TA-DA! Musical Eras!
It includes all the major musical eras of music, from Medieval to Modern! (Modern is comprised of 20th Century, Contemporary, and 21st Century.) It is EASY to see how time progresses, as labeled by "time travel." Dates of each era are also labeled under each, and instruments or composers of each era are given in sub-categories below each era. Giving an example, I'll start backwards. Chopin (which has a note attached) leads to the Romantic Era, which leads to Music Eras. A picture of Chopin is displayed, though it is only a caricature.
I enjoy this program because of its simplicity. I was able to create this within an hour, and it was easy and convenient. It can be FAST, which is wonderful for teachers who do not have much time to spend hours on the computer. I did wish I had a video for some instructions, since I did have to grill my classmates and teacher on how and what to do for this project. It is also unfortunate that the program only has a 30-day trial and is so expensive to upload on a computer.
For students' benefit, I am excited to say that my organization can help THEM organize. I can also use a different formats to help organize the information in a different ways, as adjusted by inspiration.
