This site is an incredible resource for a teacher involved in any discipline.
In this age of increasing cutbacks in school funding, it is rare for students to be able to take field trips to museums. Thus, it is more important than ever to take advantage of virtual field trips where students can be exposed to primary sources and museum collections without leaving the classroom.
There are so many treasures within this site, but one I use frequently is the "Educators" section. Here, you will find all the information needed to make history come alive for your students. It is quite remarkable and well worth a visit!
The Politics of Hybrid Regulatory Governance: Interests, Power and Pharmaceutical Harmonization. Has word stems to click on like our diigo. Lots of information.
Scholastic's Global Trek is a way for students to travel around the world without ever having to leave their classroom.
When students arrive in the country of their choice they are supplied with a suggested travel itinerary. This itinerary offers them links to background information and a chance to read about the country's people.
A lot of great information on economic releases. This site also has a link for careers for kids. They can choose what they are interested in and read about it. Great way to help them learn what they may want to do someday.
This website has information on Past population growth and future population growth. Students can find out what forces are responsible for the world's human population. Students can learn from models of future human population growth.
I have also added another site similar to this one. This is a place to go to find contact information for the Representatives from each area. Students can easily access this information for writing letters.
Besides the contact info (which is wonderful), this site has a section for kids, which teaches them various things about the senate and more. It also has teacher resources. This is a great site, one which could be very useful to a teacher,even if just to gain some knowledge.
