Academic Earth - History - 2 views

  •  
    I love these podcasted lectures. I usually get them down through iTunes U or iTunes podcasts (free!) and then put them up on moodle (similar to BlackBoard) for students to download and listen to/watch for their homework/research. Parents get really impressed too when their little angel is listening to a Berkeley Uni lecture on their iPod! [(^).(^)]

    The Internet has many sites with information and help for homework assignments. But how do you know if the information a site contains is reliable? The Students' Guide to Web Search helps you learn how to tell a good site from a garbage site, and shows you how to start searching smart.

Edward L. Bernays Propaganda (1928) - 1 views

  •  
    A book far ahead of it's time. Easy to find a selection for homework or lesson prompt - from the weaponization of public opinion to the marketing of cigarettes. Students could just flip through the book or you could assign specific readings.

BBC - A History of the World - About - British Museum - 100 Objects - 8 views

  •  
    This is a really cool site! There is also a podcast to accompany each object. There is an audio podcast and an enlargeable graphic of the object. These are great to use as bellwork, or within a lesson, or even as homework! I usually devise my own set of question(s) to go with the podcast and object - whether quiz style questions or longer discussion style questions.

Making Sense of Letters and Diaries - 10 views

  •  
    Looks like a useful guide by an experienced history teacher. Might be good for homework or a lesson activity? I'm focussing at the moment on training my students with 'historical thinking.' I find it much more useful a model than the 'critical thinking' models so common these days, and the results are promising. If anyone has any tips I'd be most appreciative...

Hardcore History Podcast: Show 16 - Nazi Tidbits - 11 views

    podcast

    Are you a Dan fan too, Sue? Sorry to keep harping on this everyone, but I've found iTunes an excellent central place to get podcasts from. On the most recent version iTunesU is even better; there are thousands of university lectures and seminars there freely available. I put them up on moodle for the kids to use for research, homework, etc or the students just get them straight from iTunes. Definitely worth a look.

Digital Egypt for Universities - 1 views

  •  
    Although this is an online secondary source site (which in my experience are usually superficial and dodgy) the information seems to be quite thorough and good-quality. That's probably because it's run by University College London. Many interesting and informative themes are picked up. Definitely good for student research or classwork/homework.
