Overview: This is the best site I was able to visit. It is the website for the History Channel and it combines all the tools useful for teaching to the digital generation of students now occupying classrooms. Design: The website design is excellent and obviously expensive. It is well organized and broad in its media: combining videos, interactive maps, role playing games, and quizzes. Content: The content is wide ranging and corresponds with cable channel's viewing. The information seems to come from reliable information and it is portrayed in an entertaining and expert manner. The role playing and action games have limited educational value but using these games to get students interested in history may get them to branch out into the more educational areas of the website.
