Some topics that were covered in this website were; How in 3000 BC wearing nail polish indicated wealth and social status. Mixed from egg whites, gelatin, beeswax and gum Arabic. (To make different shade they added rose, orchid or impatient petals.) I was very shocked to find out that in 600 BC nail polish was strictly for royalty and those who were lower class and had nail polish on they would be sentenced to the death penalty. Also went into other time periods such as the 14th century and 1500-1990's explaining the trends that went on in those times. I thought this was a very informative website and I learned a lot from it as well.

this website is a great source of knowledge about home machine and small metal casting.

Piktochart is a media form (sort of like prezi) that lets you choose a template and make your own informational graphic, which can include pictures, your own text, and features like graphs, interactive maps, and youtube videos. This source gives you a lot of options, but it is hard to take advantage of them all your first time around, and the site could definitely be more intuitive and user-friendly. However, I would recommend it to fellow students anyway, since it is a relatively easy way to create a class project that looks much more polished and professional than a powerpoint. Using this source was a risk for me, since I am not very tech-savvy, and I was afraid I would not know how to use it. However, after a bit of exploration I now feel pretty confident using piktochart, and it has bettered my learning by making me more comfortable with technology and giving me another option for school projects.
