DiscoveryBox
http://museumbox.e2bn.org/ DiscoveryBox If you could put a number of items into a box that described your life, what would you include? What do you think would be included if you were a Victorian Servant or Queen Elizabeth I. If you lived during the English Civil War, what items would you include to make a case for, or against, the parliamentarians? And what if you were an abolitionist and wanted to show that slavery was wrong and unnecessary, how would you create your evidence. Discovery Box provides the tools for you to do just this. It allows you to build up an argument or description of an event, person or historical period by placing items in a virtual box. You can display anything from a text file to a movie. You can also view the discovery boxes submitted by other people and comment on the contents. |

The Future (pbs)
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/ This site looks to the future from the perspective of the 1950s. The site looks at consumer plastics, which took off in the '50s. A plastics engineer explains what life was like before plastics, what plastics might do in the future, and how plastics can be recycled. Site visitors can create virtual plastic products online in the Multi-Functional Plastics Production Lab or try some do-it-yourself experiments at home, like making slime. Kids can also compare job possibilities in 1950, today, and beyond. After taking a short quiz, they are presented with a fun range of possible types of occupations they might find interesting. And finally, kids can see predictions for the future made in 1950 -- and make their own! |

History: A Guide for College Students
http://www.bowdoin.edu/writing-guides/ Reading, Writing, and Researching for History: A Guide for College Students For all who have taken history courses in college, the experience of writing a research paper is etched indelibly in memory: late nights before the paper is due, sitting in pale light in front of a computer monitor or typewriter, a huge stack of books (most of them all-too-recently acquired) propped next to the desk, drinking endless cups of coffee or bottles of Jolt cola.

The Mary Rose
http://www.maryrose.org/ The Mary Rose is the only 16th century warship on display anywhere in the world. Built between 1509 and 1511, she was one of the first ships able to fire a broadside, and was a firm favourite of King Henry VIII. After a long and successful career, she sank accidentally during an engagement with the French fleet in 1545. Her rediscovery and raising were seminal events in the history of nautical archaeology. The Learning City is a unique Key Stage 2 History resource. This unit is based on life aboard the Mary Rose. Suitable for ages 7-11. Even if you're not studying history, there are some great pictures on this part of the site. Now with 3D Model preview! |
