Contains historical sources and images as well as geographic and anthropologic information on all the regions of the world. The search function is tailored more for someone interested in anthropology, however the results contain many historical sources.

This quiz focusses quite a bit on Australian history (how parochial!) and requires some quite detailed factual knowledge, however might be useful as part of a whole class game show or something like that...

This is the anthropological artfefacts databast at the Smithsonian Museum. Seems to especially cover the Americas and Egypt, although probably has stuff from all over the place and you'd expect it to be well-organised. Over 2 million artefacts.

This is largely a secondary sources (which I usually avoid - largely because I figure you've all already got enough of these in the classroom and library so primary sources are more valuable) however the information looked pretty good and it is easy-access for students. That's always a good thing. It has some timelines too.

A site with over 200 free documentaries on the topic of history. Sorry for the vague tags on sites like this, but the collection is so eclectic that it's hard to be thorough. Searching for region and time period should yield results when you're looking later.

"The IISH collections comprise archive, library and audio-visual material with a thematic emphasis on social and emancipatory movements. The institute holds over 3,000 archives, more than 1,000,000 printed volumes, and a equivalent number of audio-visual items." Looks good. I love social history.

This one will only be useful for Australian teachers (except in the astounding event of Aus'n history being taught outside the sunburnt country) and looks like it might be a little chest-thumpingly patriotic. That's not always a bad thing though is it and there are some primary sources you could pinch and then use for more subversive purposes if that's your thing.

This provides a database of archaeological sites currently under excavation, including images of artefacts and some historical information. You search by region and then get a list of sites currently being worked on, so it can be a bit time-consuming but would be excellent for student research.

BBC Radio 4 has some excellent podcasts on history, expecially In Our Time with Melvyn Bragg. Similar I guess to PBS in the US and Radio National in Australia. I've bookmarked the website here, but I actually find it easiest and most effective to subscribe to these podcasts through iTunes.

I know, it's only Google Books but it's so good for student research I thought I'd chuck it in. If you tell your students to use the 'Ctrl+F' function to search for keywords it can make their research much faster.
