Social Bookmarking - 8 views

  •  
    "Furthermore, a social bookmarking system allows users to share their bookmarks with others and even join groups of people with similar interests. (Bookmarks can also be kept private.) In a school setting it means colleagues can share academic websites easiiy and students can share subject websites. A defining aspect of social bookmarking is that it simplifies how we share information with each other, and makes it easier to retrieve resources."

Group Ancient Civilizations's best bookmarks - 1 views

  •  
    This group is dedicated to Ancient Civs, especially Egypt. I didn't want to just pinch their bookmarks as that's a bit rude (seeings I'm in this group) so I thought bookmarking their bookmarks, which will update, the best way. There are some great sites here.

Hello everyone. Thanks for putting in some great bookmarks to the group; I don't know about you but already there have been some websites put in that I'll be able to use when teaching my classes. M...

Scholar - 0 views

    Not sure on this one; it's specifically designed to assist with research but I'm not sure how much is on there or if you have to pay. There might be some good stuff if you've got the time to look.

earth album alpha - a slicker google maps + flickr mash-up - 1 views

  •  
    Earth Album is a simpler, slicker Flickr mash-up that allows you to explore some of the most stunning photos in the world courtesy of Google maps and Flickr. To begin your journey, just click somewhere on the map, e.g. "India". Note-- since the top Flickr images are used, the images change every few weeks; bookmark this site and check back for a different experience in a month!

100 Video Sites Every Educator Should Bookmark | AccreditedOnlineColleges.org - 22 views

  •  
    "It doesn't matter if you're a veteran teacher or a newbie just now taking college courses - finding new ways to get students engaged in the classroom is always a great thing. One way many teachers are reaching out is with the multitude of material found on the web, allowing them to turn everyday lessons into a multimedia experience. You can find a great amount of helpful material on these sites, including videos to augment your lessons, lectures to inspire students, documentaries to show them how things work, and loads of additional videos to help you become a better, smarter teacher."

History Classes Collaboration Project - 105 views

They're probably a bit young Ginger to interact with the high school history students on the network. It might be a worry if there were misunderstanding or other problems given the age gap. Eventu...

BBC - Radio 4 - Podcast - 0 views

  •  
    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.

Hargrett Library Rare Map Collection - 2 views

  •  
    A collection of rare maps and manuscripts on North American history from the founding of the colonies on the East Coast.
  •  
    Over 800 maps going back 500 years. Quality could be dodgy though - to be honest I didn't check. I've got bookmarkitis. Quality of comments is deteriorating. Need sleep.

Fireside Chats of Franklin D. Roosevelt - 0 views

  •  
    Written transcripts of the 'fireside chats' of Roosevelt, beginning in 1933 and continuing through to 1944. I wonder if, in 60 years, some history teacher will bookmark a site with the Twitter messages that I receive from Obama? Or maybe this message itself? Trippy.

Flickr: Classical Antiquity: Art & Architecture - 0 views

  •  
    This group was too good to pass up bookmarking. It's a collection of over 2000 good-quality images of places and artefacts from the classical world. An ancient history teacher's dream. Why are people still buying textbooks?

Flickr: History Directory - 0 views

  •  
    This is an enormous repository of images on flickr all devoted to history. The images are uploads are all done by random people (problem) so the tagging might be even worse than when I bookmark sites to our group. There'll be some gems in with all the trash though - useful for PowerPoints, sources on exams, student assignments, etc?

Europeana - Homepage - 0 views

  •  
    Not sure if I've already bookmarked another page from this site. It's a repository of European heritage, which for us means sources and images. I think it will become quite a massive repository of sources for all periods and regions of Europe.

Dan Carlin - Hardcore History - 5 views

  •  
    My students like Dan. He has a dramatic and engaging way of going over historical topics and I've found him generally quite accurate. The podcasts cover a variety of topics; I subscribe to them through iTunes for free (^).(^) and then post them on moodle for the kids to download for their research. Does anyone know any other good podcasts?
  •  
    I'd already saved this but Dan has just released the fourth show in his excellent 'Ghosts of the Ostfront' series so I thought I'd bookmark it again. If you're teaching World War II or the Indian Wars I strongly recommend you take a listen to Dan's podcasts. I put them up on our Moodle site so the students can use them for research; I usually download podcasts through iTunes. Some students enjoy them so much they listen to them on their own afterwards.
