"The basic idea is that teachers and librarians can upload and share all of their lessons by re-creating them (cutting and pasting sometimes) online and then sharing them with the public. It's a bit more time consuming than just uploading your lessons, but that allows all of the lessons to be searchable and organized. I've been using it for awhile now, and while there aren't many library lessons out there now, there are more added every day. As an added bonus, for every 50 lessons you upload and share, you can get a $10 Starbucks gift card!"

The Lincoln Archives Digital Project started in 2002 with a simple idea for a vast undertaking: to digitize all federal records that exist from the administration of Abraham Lincoln. Over 6,000 documents are currently online and over half a million documents are scanned and in the process of being placed online. People from around the world now have access to the documents of Abraham Lincoln's administration, including Civil War records.

"In this lesson students will learn about the impact of photography in the Civil Rights Movement by analyzing James Karales's photograph of the Selma to Montgomery March in 1965, reading about this march, and imagining themselves as a marcher in Karales's photograph. As an assessment, students will create postcards, incorporating their own visual images and descriptive writing about the March."
