"Documenting the American South (DocSouth) is a digital publishing initiative that provides Internet access to texts, images, and audio files related to southern history, literature, and culture. Currently DocSouth includes twelve thematic collections of books, diaries, posters, artifacts, letters, oral history interviews, and songs." That's what they say. Run by the University of North Carolina.
Great short easily digestable film clips, documents, and challenges that follow the standards fairly closely. Both regular and AP versions of U.S. History - geared toward high school but I use these clips regularly with my 8th grade class. They tend to retain information from the clips much better than information fron their text (TCI).
