Free resources from the excellent Discovery Education site. 

As always thanks to everyone who has added sites recently to the group; I'm sure others find them useful. At the moment we are re-writing our 8-10 History and Geography Work Programs (that's what we call the course description of what our students will study, assessment, etc). I've posted my 11-12 History ones here: http://www.scribd.com/DavidHilton1. If anyone else would like to contribute their school's Work Programs or courses I'm sure that would be very valuable and could help spread best practice between jurisdictions. I'd certainly find it very helpful in gaining ideas.
I recommend Scribd if you wish to post and share documents, although Google Docs has a similar function.
Best wishes wherever you are,
David.

For each Congress beginning with the 73rd (1933-35), this timeline features session dates, partisan composition, the presidential administration, a list of congressional leaders, and notable legislation passed.

This interesting series from the British Museum has an accompanying podcast easily downloadable on iTunes. 

Does anyone else use Twitter with their classes? I use #historystudent with my senior history students. Please feel free to bring your students onto the feed. DM me on MisterHistory@twitter.com if you'd like to organise collaboration. 

The NHEC has some excellent resources for history teachers. 

The My History Network has many new features now and a new address. If you would like to connect your students with other high school history students from around the world just apply to join (let me know you're from Diigo History Teachers so I can verify you quickly) and then you can get your students on the network. I assure you they'll benefit from the experience. Hope to see your students there :) 

Large collection of links to pages with historical information, sources, etc. 

Very large digital archive. 

A useful overview of the importance of research in high school history and how it is generally structured in Queensland. Relates particularly to the QLD syllabus but other jurisdictions may find it interesting. Research is particularly emphasised in our current curricula here at the moment. Thanks Lisa!
