David Hilton on 17 Dec 09"The American Social History Project/Center for Media and Learning is dedicated to renewing interest in history by challenging traditional ways that people learn about the past. Founded in 1981 and based at the City University of New York Graduate Center, ASHP/CML produces print, visual, and multimedia materials that explore the richly diverse social and cultural history of the United States. We also lead professional development seminars that help teachers to use the latest scholarship, technology, and active learning methods in their classrooms. "

David Hilton on 17 Dec 09Seems to have a few sources in there, strong ideological agenda aside. Might be good for teaching the history of the poor or minorities.

The History Engine: Doing History with Digital Tools | Academic Commons - 0 views

'One of the primary goals of the History Engine project has been to design a research and writing exercise modest enough in its analytical scope and its length that it allows students to "do history" long before a senior seminar or capstone course. (Another important goal, discussed below, is to capture this research to amass a large history archive.) The History Engine is an online archive consisting of thousands of "episodes" written and contributed by undergraduates.'

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! [(^).(^)]

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.
