    A cute site that is perfect for engaging students in history! You open a virtual fortune cookie and it gives you a silly fortune that relates to something that happened in history! It's powered by Footnote so we know it's good!

Human Rights Library- University of Minnesota - 1 views

    Seems to focus mainly on contemporary human rights although there will be reference to historical conflicts and human rights breaches, I guess. Has links to over 4000 other sites and there are bound to be some useful sources in there.

Historical atlas with 4000 year map animation - 0 views

  •  
    I've found this animated atlas useful for when I'm introducing a new unit to show the students the "grand sweep" of history. It's Euroasian-centric and some of the details are wrong, but the students seem to benefit from such a visual display.
