Explorers Theme Page This "Theme Page" has links to two types of resources related to the study of explorers. Students and teachers will find curricular resources (information, content...) to help them learn about this topic. In addition, there are also links to instructional materials (lesson plans) which will help teachers provide instruction in this theme. Please read our 1492: An Ongoing Voyage
This virtual exhibit from the US Library of Congress addresses the following questions: What was life like in the Western Hemisphere and the Mediterranean before 1492? What spurred European expansion? How did European, African and American peoples react to each other? What were some of the immediate results of these contacts? The exhibit also examines the first sustained contacts between American people and European explorers, conquerors and settlers from 1492 to 1600.
[An] Adventure to the New World
Intermediate students use the Internet to complete an Explorer's Notebook in a simulated voyage to find the North West Passage. This is a two - three week Language Arts and Social Studies unit.

Passageways: True Tales of Adventure for Young Explorers website
Part 1 This teaching strategy is the first of a three-part unit plan, though it can be used separately. In this lesson, students will become familiar with the Passageways website. The lesson leads students through the website and requires that they read to find answers to a series of questions. Students will become acquainted with some of the general aspects of exploration, as well as the terms used. They will move from one thematic section to another, and visit the introductory page of one explorer in each theme. The time required for this lesson is one 50-minute session. Students can work as a class, in pairs or in groups. The National Library of Canada's Passageways website provides young learners with an idea of what it was like to venture into uncharted territory and face unknown dangers. Written and structured for children, the website is designed to be easy to use either in the classroom or at home.

RECOMMENDED!
William Denton's fantastic moderated mailing list concerning all things hard-boiled, including, ahem, private eyes and other detective fiction. For real buffs, although not for everyone, as expressed by Peter Lance, who had this to say: "I've never seen a list devoted to the ostensible study of hardboiled mysteries made up of softer people. You're all a bunch of bloated, self-important, would be-critics. There isn't a single one of you that I'd want to watch my back down some dark alley. Why don't you guys just go out and collectively get a life. Or write your own books instead of living like a school of cyber guardfish off the works of others." Evidently, some folks on the list didn't like Peter's book (I wonder why he needs his back watched?). Anyway, if you like this site, you'll probably like this list. And spammers, BSPers and other web parasites beware: Rara-Avis is simply one of the best-moderated lists on the Net. Bullshit is not tolerated.

Africa Travel
If you are planning to travel to Africa, an Africa safari provides the best way to experience the parks, wildlife and scenery the continent has to offer. Africa travel safaris offer the freedom, flexibility, and choices that you deserve. A place as wild and spectacular as the Serengeti is sometimes best absorbed in serene solitude with just yourself and somebody you feel comfortable with. We feel that it would be a great injustice to be dealing with cultural Africa safari niceties and group dynamics while surrounded by one of the most untamed and prolific wilderness areas left on the planet.

World History Web Resources:
An Annotated Guide
by
Michael Lorenzen, Head of Reference Services
Central Michigan University

I have prepared this guide to help students find the best history resources on the Web. Unfortunately, there is a lot of garbage on the Web. Some of it is from people who have real biases on issues and they are trying to portray historical events in a skewed manner. Others simply write and post material which they sincerely believe to good history. The reality is that many of these people have no training in history and the end results of their efforts is misleading, wrong, or strange. I hope this guide simplifies the search process for history on the Web. Don't just type a search phrase into Yahoo! or Google and use what you find. Some of the worst sites do well in search engines and relying on them could seriously harm your grades! General Resources Here are some sites which I believe provide good resources for world history in general. Library Reference Search History Categories - This directory is based on the Open Directory Project which is a volunteer edited project of the Web. As every site submitted is reviewed by a real person, it assures that most of the spam, garbage, and wacko sites are screened out. This means most of the 12,000+ listings will provide you with good solid history information. The Open Directory Project is one of the most trusted sources on the Web. Thousands of sites use ODP data on their pages to give their visitors good Web results. Using Library Reference Search to access the ODP data will allow you to save time as dmoz.org has a slow response time on a regular basis.

    African History
    Sourcebook Africa is both the most clearly defined of continents - in its geography - and the hardest to pin down in historical terms. Human beings originated in Africa and, as a result, there is more diversity of human types and societies than anywhere else. It is not possible, in any non-ideological way, to claim any one of these peoples or societies as more essentially "African" than others; nor is it possible to exclude a given society as "not really African". On this site historical sources on the history of human societies in the continent of Africa are presented, when available, without making prejudgements about what is "African". This page is a subset of texts derived from the three major online Sourcebooks listed below. For more contextual information, for instance about the Islamic world, check out these web sites. Notes: In addition to direct links to documents, links are made to a number of other web resources.
