A tremendous asset for history teachers and students. It contains a large amount of historical information about nations and people from around the world and the creators are always adding more information. The site allows you to search alphabetically or use their search bar. It also contains timelines, quizzes and maps that identify historic locations. History teachers should really take the time to look around this amazing site. Best of all, the site is free to use.
Examines in-depth EVERY SINGLE State of the Union Address. Also includes a word cloud, graph, and timeline describing major events happening around the time of the speech.
Great map, timeline, and data resource related to military history and conflicts. Perhaps a good way to introduce concepts, or potentially also good for a project based around a particular year or decade -- helps reveal similar trends at a given point in time.
The site features picture essays, timelines, videos, and interactive guides to significant events in European and World history. Made From History is divided into four sections; WWI, WWII, Civil Rights, and Referenced Blog
A great tool for students to use to understand the sequence of events in the Arab Spring and to understand historical significance.
It would be interesting to ask students to compare international responses to the various uprisings and ask them to make a judgement about the fairness of each response.
This is largely a secondary sources (which I usually avoid - largely because I figure you've all already got enough of these in the classroom and library so primary sources are more valuable) however the information looked pretty good and it is easy-access for students. That's always a good thing. It has some timelines too.
