Build an interactive timeline of events — historical dates, story plots, life cycles, or the steps of a process. Choose vertical, horizontal or alternating layouts, group events into eras and parallel category lanes, compare two timelines on one shared axis, and let students play ordering, placing and date-guessing games with the same events. AI can draft the whole timeline from a single topic.
Build a timeline of events students can put in order.
Almost anything: plain years ('1969'), full dates ('1969-07-20'), BCE dates ('753 BCE' or just '-753'), decades ('1960s'), fuzzy dates ('circa 1500'), and even deep time ('4.6 Bya', '2.5 million years ago'). If your events have no dates at all — scenes in a story, steps in a process — switch to sequence mode and the order you list them is the order shown.
Four, and you choose which are on: put shuffled events back in order, place each event at the right spot on the axis, guess the date of an event, and quick 'which came first?' rounds. Ordering and which-came-first need at least 2 events; placing and date-guessing also need real dates, so they are only offered on dated timelines.
Lanes split one timeline into parallel category tracks — Politics, Science and Culture side by side, each with its own color, and students can filter the games to a single lane. Compare mode shows one of your other saved timelines next to this one on a single shared axis, so students can see, say, Ancient Rome and Ancient China lined up against the same years.
Yes. Give it a topic — 'the Space Race', 'the French Revolution' — pick how many events you want, and AI drafts them with dates and short descriptions, optionally split into category lanes and illustrated with images. Everything lands in the editor for you to review and edit before you save or play.
