Education
| We're continually reviewing new sites and adding resources, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. Suggest a link here |
| Barbara J. Feldman reviews several great related sites each
week for newspapers across the country. This site contains those excellent
reviews, available by topic or chronologically. This is a wonderful source
of interesting material on the Web, whether you’re surfing with kids
or not! |
| Technological Horizons in Education provides a comprehensive source of
computer and related technologies and how their use can improve teaching
and learning. Learn about setting up networks and web pages, products
and funding sources, using the Internet in the classroom, much more. |
| "The web's most complete educational employment resource"
attempts to bring together teachers looking for jobs and schools looking
for teachers. Post and edit your resume or register your district and
post your openings, and it's free. |
| This site contains lesson plans and step-by-step instructions
on how to use Daryl Cagle’s Pro Cartoonists Index in the classroom to
foster learning about current events, politics, symbolism, and more. Plans
are available for primary, middle, and secondary levels. |
| What a great site full of resources for teachers. The "Reference
Desk" is huge with links to dictionaries, calculators, maps,
encyclopedias, card catalogs, and more. There are also language and
curriculum resources. Other nice features are the chat board and the
lesson exchange. This site is extremely useful! |
| The leading magazine for technology-using educators offers a
searchable database of software reviews from the past few years, among
other features. Parents are welcome at this site also. |
| New in 1997, ThinkQuest Junior is modeled after the international
ThinkQuest competition which encourages older students to form teams to
research and build educational Web sites. TQ Junior is for US students
in grades 4-6, but the idea is the same. If you'd like to get involved,
this site will tell you how. |
| Under the auspices of the Los Alamos National Laboratory, MegaMath
attempts "to bring unusual and important mathematical ideas to
elementary school classrooms so that young people and their teachers can
think about them." Some very interesting projects, and they'd be
fun for older students as well! |
| The UNHCR has put together a very informative and moving site using
the words, pictures, and thoughts of refugees around the world. The
teachers' section provides lesson plans, mainly for use with ages 9-11,
12-14, and 15-18, in a number of subjects like art, history, geography,
and language. |
| Though primarily this is information about the musuem, the "Learning
About the Holocaust" section provides educators with information
for teaching about the holocaust. There are also excerpts from the
official trial with accompanying photographs (though some are pretty
graphic). |
| A WebTopic is "a collection of web site reviews, centered around
a theme." Among 20 topics completed so far are Astronomy, Egyptian
Archaeology, pets, and invention. In addition to lengthy reviews of lots
of related sites, each WebTopic offers books, tapes, and other resources
to fill out a unit of study. This is part of a larger site which also
includes lots of reviewed home schooling sites, book reviews, and more. |
| Published by Educational Communications, Inc., this is the only
recognition program in the education field where the ultimate consumers of
education - the students - have the opportunity and responsibility to
honor the teachers who have most significantly impacted their lives. |
| This site is put up by "An Educational Consultancy for At-Risk
Adolescents" and offers a look at special schools and programs,
articles and opinions on education methods and "alternative fields,"
reviews, resources, a bulletin board, and more. Audio and video
enhanced. |
| This is a straightforward presentation of essay writing basics, plus
an excellent links collection including writing sources, grammar and
study aids, and bibliography resources. |
| Drivingschoolus.com offers driving school courses for traffic school, defensive driving, driver education and fleet driver education programs in online mode at very low price. |
