In preparation for our presentation at Digital Revolution: Upgrading Education for Digital Civilization, I've decided to make a quick post about some thoughts and ideas we had on how to tie in the historical content to missionary work.
The main focus of our project thus far has been helping the referral center missionaries share the gospel online. We have done this by participating in mingles online, chatting with friends on facebook, creating and translating gospel related prezi presentations, and hosting a fireside to help get more people involved.
I feel that a cool way to tie in the historical content would be for each of us to research about how our ancestors were introduced to the gospel and eventually accepted the gospel. Then show the evolution of missionary work. I think it would be neat to show how it has changed from early saints leaving there families to share the word, young men sharing the gospel through memorized discussions, young men no longer using memorized discussions (emphasis on teaching by the spirit following Preach My Gospel), and now incorporating online tools and media to spread the gospel world wide. \
More finalized thoughts to come....check out our group website for more.

So apparently this isn't much information on this out there. I was going to write on the exact same thing and googled it, and your blog was the first to come up. I'll hopefully find some more stuff that we can add to our project. Looking forward to hearing everyone's stories!
