History by Era | The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History - 9 views
-
"History by Era" is the Institute's innovative new approach to our shared national history. At its core it is a collection of fifty individual introductions written by some of the most distinguished scholars of our day. It thus speaks to the reader not in one voice, but in fifty different, unique voices as each of these scholars interprets the developments, movements, events, and ideas of a particular era. Each Era follows the same template so that readers can move easily from one to another. An introduction to the time period is followed by essays by leading scholars; primary sources with images, transcripts, and a historical introduction; multimedia presentations by historians and master teachers; interactive presentations; and lesson plans and other classroom resources. Read an Introduction to History by Era from our senior editor, Carol Berkin, for more detailed information.

Diigo conversations push kids deeper - Reflections of a Techie - 21 views
-
But I have to tell you that despite all the pain in my neck this has been, I'm LOVING Diigo. We are annotating the blogs as we read them and then dissecting what they mean. Now imagine my little kids (6th graders you know) trying to understand that the geochemistry of this sediment can tell scientist about the cycling of sea levels...and this cycling is important to the coastal cities survival throughout the world. We're just at the most basic places, but they are digging through...asking me questions and pulling out info they think is relevant.I have them write summaries and email those summaries from Diigo to me each weekend. OK...not all are great. But most of these kids "get it" and are pretty interested in the science being conducted. I think they are also grooving on the conversation we get from highlighting important things from the blogs and then chatting (via the annotation commenting feature) about why it's important and what are the next things we should look for.
-
This is VERY good! Congratulations! I LOVE to read about teachers who are experimenting out of their comfort zone with technologies like Diigo that produce such positive results. This experiment you're doing with your kiddos is something that will change forever how they view online resources. And, it will change how they look at the web. All very positive, and all skills that will last far into their education. Yes, it is, as you say, the BEST.
