Title: A Blast From the Past With Nuclear Chemistry
URL: http://www.readwritethink.org/classroom-resources/lesson-plans/blast-from-past-with-31054.html
Description:

After students have studied the basics of fusion and fission as well as the splitting of the atom, groups of three choose a nuclear chemistry topic to research, finding the “what, how, where, and why” of their subject. After conducting their research, students use the free Web 2.0 tool Timetoast to construct an online timeline that features fifteen important facts with images and captions about their topic. Students then use the timelines to present their newly acquired knowledge to the class.
