Motivation, both intrinsic and extrinsic, is a key factor in the success of students at all stages of their education, and teachers can play a pivotal role in providing and encouraging that motivation in their students. Of course that’s much easier said than done, as all students are motivated differently and it takes time and a lot of effort to learn to get a classroom full of kids enthusiastic about learning, working hard, and pushing themselves to excel.

This site lets students create and share bibliographies, as well as keep track of citations. I think for the many papers and research done in humanities classes this would be very beneficial for students, to have a way to keep track of their sources and avoid plagiarism.

I assume that many students nowadays have twitter accounts or access. This twitter group seems to be a great collection of humanities resources, and using a social media site would hopefully excite students. I even thought that it would be fun to have students make a twitter account of historical figures, imagine a twitter war between Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis!
