The Genographic Project is a five-year effort to understand the human journey-where we came from and how we got to where we live today. This unprecedented effort will map humanity's genetic journey through the ages. If you choose to participate and add your data to the global research database, you'll help to delineate our common genetic tree, giving detailed shape to its many twigs and branches. Teachers can order Genographic Project Participation Kits at a special educator's discount, get free lesson plans related to the Genographic Project, and (coming soon) access other resources and discuss topics in forum boards.

A WebQuest about Evaluation Websites. If you are like most students, you are relying heavily on resources from the Web for your research. Not all Web resources are created equal. If fact, there are great variations in the quality of the resources you access. The rule of thumb is "when in doubt, doubt." When you carefully select your resources, when you understand their strengths and limits, you create better products.
