    "The History Engine is an educational tool that gives students the opportunity to learn history by doing the work-researching, writing, and publishing-of a historian. The result is an ever-growing collection of historical articles or "episodes" that paints a wide-ranging portrait of life in the United States throughout its history and that is available to scholars, teachers, and the general public in our online database."

      I have thought about Infographics in the same way.  Have students do the research and then create the graphic to assess what they have learned.  Assessment comes in many forms, yet a question needs to be answered.  "Is a grade derived from points given as the final description of what a student has learned, is a broad rubric written from the learning goals, or is a describe learning along a continuum?
