Great interactive website that allows the user to visit a museum to learn about places in Europe and the Middle East. Very easy to navigate around the site and is made by National Geographic.
Article about bringing the works of Shakespeare alive with performances on YouTube and rap. Inner city students can now understand the literary works of the most well known and read English author of all time. I remember when I was in high school most of us hated reading Shakespeare's plays, but if we were allowed to "remake" them with the plot untouched that would have been much better. Just shows and alternative assessment that gives students ownership over their learning.
