Tom Daccord on 15 Jul 12This article provides a case study of how the CRCD framework shaped the development of the "Day in the Life of a Teenage Hobo Project," a multi-day investigation into the social history of teenage homelessness during the Great Depression. Using the framework, Tom Daccord, a former U.S. history teacher and current academic technology specialist in Massachusetts, designed a project that used multiple technologies- search engines, blogs, and podcasting tools-to help students investigate the political, economic, and social history of the Great Depression.
