TimeRime is a web application, which allows people to view, create, share and compare interactive timelines. In its first year TimeRime has become a popular website for schools and students. Students make timelines of subjects from class, or of their own research. They can do this individually or in groups. TimeRime introduces the education account for schools, universities and other organizations that have the need for an advertisement free, closed online environment to make, view and grade timelines.

The Historical Thinking Project was designed to foster a new approach to history education - with the potential to shift how teachers teach and how students learn, in line with recent international research on history learning. It revolves around the proposition that historical thinking - like scientific thinking in science instruction and mathematical thinking in math instruction - is central to history instruction and that students should become more competent as historical thinkers as they progress through their schooling.

Schools will punish students who do not display proper behavior, but they rarely model the right behavior, rendering the punishment useless. Social studies content allows for character exploration as a reasonable tangent, making it the social studies teacher's responsibility to incorporate it when possible.

Over a hundred years ago, there were no TV sets, stereos, or video games, but there were always people around ready to play games. Families were often large - parents & several children, as well as an aunt, uncle, or a grandparent or two, all living under one roof, so there were always people around who might be talked into playing a game. Children also played games at school, in town, and at work parties.\n

This is a network designed for high school students to share ideas and help each other with their history studies. Please let us know that you're a teacher when you join and we'll grant you teacher privileges. You can then admit and monitor your students in the network. Any feedback you could provide on ways to improve it would also be great. Hope we see you there!

This is a great resource! I love that there is a blank grid for the students to use to predict what they will hear tonight. It's a plan that can be used for Middle to High Schoolers. Thanks for sharing.

Tammy, I agree! The blank template would be great for high school level civics/current events classes, and the other is perfect for middle school. Plus, the two assessment options are great starting points.

Vietnam War casualties listed by Home of Record. The name you seek may not be under the city you expect. The state index pages are based on each casualty's Official Home of Record. The home of record may be the place the person entered military service or that person's residence at that time. The home of record is not always that person's birthplace, home town, or place of high school graduation. If you don't find the name where you expect, please also look under nearby larger cities or see the index pages by last name.

Our teaching resources include captions to increase learning and literacy benefits for students. We are currently working with teachers to build our resources for primary and secondary schools across a number of different subjects.

"The roles of librarians are being remixed and re-interpreted by these challenges, issues, and lines of questions; in addition, the work we do will be more organic and strategic if we have the humility to truly listen to those we serve and engage in conversations."
