Below are links to sites specifically designed to help teachers use the Internet in designing courses in history. Please feel free to send us other links we should post. Just drop an email to the editor.
Note:
Descriptions of the sites are taken from the sites themselves.
THE SYLLABUS FINDER
The Syllabus Finder: This site, run by George Mason University's Center for History and New Media, features an automated search tool that locates relevant syllabi on any topic. The Syllabus Finder scans the largest database of history syllabi--over 11,000 and growing daily--in combination with a powerful Google-based search of thousands of others on the web. You can compare courses at different universities, see how widely assigned a specific book is, or use it to plan your own course. (Authors: You can use it to find out how widely assigned your own book is.)
FOR K-12 TEACHERS
The New York Times Learning Network: This site is geared towards students in grades 3-12, their teachers and parents. Teachers can access daily lesson plans for grades 6-12, as well as quizzes built around NYT articles. Previous lessons are available in the archive and in thematic lesson plan units. Teachers can also use News Snapshot, aimed for grades 3-5, to explore current events through New York Times photos and related questions. The site also provides them with the latest education news from the newspaper.
Lehigh University: Using films to help teach history.

In the course of participating in this program, the team will explore and add to growing sources of educational information on the Internet for students by students.
Social Studies Lesson Plans (Columbia U.): Lesson plans and activities for students in K-12
The Internet School Library Media Center: A meta-site with links to Internet sites organized by subject discipline for K-12 educators.

(This is a radio program presented by On Point, public radio's live evening news program).

Different technological techniques, such as audio and video, are used on the various sites.

A major goal of this journal, therefore, is to help define useful standards to maximize the utility of computers in historical studies. The journal is intended for a general audience of teachers, students, and researchers interested in the application of computers in historical studies. In addition to articles dealing with the creative application of computers to particular problems in history, the journal will also be reviewing relevant research in the field, appropriate software, and related Internet resources.
