Making Your Own

What do teachers want from the Internet?  They want quite different things and usually have to look in different places to find them.

They want general lists that guide them through the Internet and lessen the need to do frustrating searches.

They want lesson plans which cover descrete subjects in a few days.

They want background information for themselves and reference sites for their students.

They want complex sites which involve whole units of study and have supportive, engaging materials for students.

Teachers who know the Internet well want ways to link their classrooms with other classrooms, or with researchers in the field.    They want their students  to be able find information, develop hypothesis and draw conclusions from their own web-based research.

This site gives you a glimpse of sites that are available for all these purposes.  It can only be a glimpse, but the pages your are using will remain on-line to come back and examine at your leisure.
