Most states will have to rethink their approach to teaching critical analysis of all kinds of information, as the standards require that students be able to:
Gather relevant information from multiple print and digital sources, assess the credibility and accuracy of each source, and integrate the information while avoiding plagiarism;
Draw evidence from literary or informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research; and
Interpret mathematical results in the context of a situation and reflect on whether the results make sense, possibly improving the model if it has not served its purpose.

The list is organized into helpful catagories by subject or discipline. One of my favorites for History is listed here, the David Rumsey Historical Map Collection. The collection has over 30,000 images, searchable by keyword.
