    A huge resource for historical radio programs. We have a group assignment where students create their own radio show and this would provide some good resources for demonstrating historical format, content and language.

    In the 1950s and 1960s planners in Harrisonburg, VA implemented a federally sponsored slum clearance and urban renewal program. Seeking to compare this redevelopment effort with the urban renewal efforts in other major cities, students in James Madison University's US Urban Social History Course have begun digitizing relevant primary documents. These files are drawn from Harrisonburg's City Council minutes as well as records located at the Department of Planning and Community Development, the Harrisonburg Redevelopment and Housing Authority, and in local planner Robert Sullivan's personal collection. The files are organized by the location where the originals are currently located. Indices and summaries of relevant Daily New Record articles will be added shortly. The students who digitzed this collection of documents include: John Almquist, Alicen Brown, Alexander Carroll, Rose Anne Coates, Troy Cunningham, Eric Echelberger, John Fitzmaurice, Paul Frankel, Christopher Gray, William Hayes, Mark Hitchko, Kristin Keinz, Anna Klemm, Meaghan Leonard, Christina Lloyd-Williams, Brian Mannion, Mallory Micetich, Elizabeth Morris, Emily Neufeld, Samuel Padgett, Taylor Wood

    While to get the full version you must buy the curriculum for any given topic (which I will say I have found to be VERY worth the money they charge if you are interested in purchasing), for any given curriculum set, when you select it, on the right side you will see a box that says "supplemental materials". This is a link that gives you access to graphic organizers, video clips by historians, etc all good stuff you can use in your lessons!

    Has articles and some source material links related to World History. The site (run out of University of Illinois, by the looks) has a strong focus on 'big history.' I hadn't encountered this term before; it seems to mean looking at history not through civilisations but rather periods or regions. If that description is wrong and someone could provide more accuracy on 'big history' that would be cool.

    The journal focuses on the New World History (looking at the world at a global scale across time) as opposed to the one civilization at a time approach. See the World History AP course description for an example of what this means: http://www.collegeboard.com/prod_downloads/ap/students/worldhistory/ap-cd-worldhist-0708.pdf David, as an Australian you are at Ground Zero of Big History since its leader is an Australian = David Christian. Christian's _Maps of Time: An Introduction to Big History_ is the one book to read on the subject. This article well covers it: http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/whc/3.1/christian.html Google David Christian, Big History for more

    Again, the journal is not specifically focused on Big History but on the New World History, but it did have one issue on Big History as its forum: http://worldhistoryconnected.press.illinois.edu/6.3/ More links than you probably want here about Big History: http://worldhistoryconnected.press.illinois.edu/6.3/maunu2.html This month's forum is on Latin America. Other forums range the gamut of world history.
