Historical Atlas of the Mediterranean - 1 views

  •  
    What an excellent resource! It has a funky interactive map with little information windows that pop up as you mouse over them, and then if you click it gives you more detailed information. Definitely useful for student research or a classroom activity. The maps are quite beautiful.

The Archive - 0 views

  •  
    A primary source archive based around the materials that were in a museum in New York that burnt down in the nineteenth century. That sounds really wrong but it's what I got from the site. Focussed on the nineteenth century.

Secrets of Great History Teachers - 0 views

  •  
    Interviews with 17 great history teachers. What an excellent idea! The most I have ever learnt about teaching was from watching exceptional teachers, so this should be useful.
  •  
    In these interviews distinguished teachers share their strategies and techniques. Good teaching is more often honored in rhetoric than reality. And great teachers are generally known locally within their own schools, but less often to a larger group of national colleagues. Our goal in this section is, in part, to identify and honor those people who have taught with excellence, dedication, and distinction.

    "Emma Goldman (1869-1940) stands as a major figure in the history of American radicalism and feminism. An influential and well-known anarchist of her day, Goldman was an early advocate of free speech, birth control, women's equality and independence, and union organization." What a woman.

Antique Roman Dishes - Collection - 0 views

  •  
    What an excellent find! Ancient Roman recipes. I couldn't find any containing the infamous garum (fermented fish oil) but there was still some weird stuff. Guess every country has its weird food (kimchi for Koreans, Vegemite for us). Anyway thank God the Europeans discovered the Americas or we'd still be eating this stuff. Yuck.

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.

    What a fascinating blog! It's a collection of extremely interesting maps. Definitely interesting for a discussion or stimulus item in class. I'll try to find his sources (assuming gender there again... sorry)

    "The History Faculty offers FREE video & audio lectures by leading UK historians. Please register for access to all our materials. There's no catch.

Flickr: Your Photostream - 1 views

  •  
    Here is the photostream including photos of activities I've run with my classes. I thought I'd add it to generate ideas on re-enactments and activities that people do with their students. I've found activities like this can be surprisingly educational by helping bring what the students have studied to life. I run them at the end of the term.

The Historical Association - 0 views

  •  
    This site seems to prefer if you pay (>)_(re for use studying history in the British system so you can guess the focus. What was that saying, the sun never sets...? Not too sure about that...

  •  
    This wiki is run by the American Historical Association and is a clearinghouse of archival material. I have no idea what that means but the site seems to have links to some primary sources which is a cool thing.
