Timelines are excellent tools for enriching lessons and helping students study class material.  They can also outline a course's progress and major assignment dates.  Either way, they provide a great visual for the progression of time.  Some timeline applications even incorporate images, audio, video, and links to create an interactive presentation that can be embedded in Moodle, Powerpoint, or Keynote.

In 2020, we recommend TimelineJS by Northwestern University's KnightLab.

From their website:

TimelineJS is an open-source tool that enables anyone to build visually rich, interactive timelines. Beginners can create a timeline using nothing more than a Google spreadsheet. Experts can use their JSON skills to create custom installations, while keeping TimelineJS's core functionality.
