The Internet Archive is building a digital library of Internet sites and other cultural artifacts in digital form. Like a paper library, we provide free access to researchers, historians, scholars, and the general public.
A service of Internet Archive ( www.archive.org ) to offer public access to NASA's images, videos and audio collections. Constantly growing with the addition of current media from NASA as well as newly digitized media from the archives of the NASA Centers.
Web site dedicated to students, teachers, parents, and the general public—to read milestone documents, consider their meaning, discuss them, and decide which are the most significant and why. This initiative creates a number of ways to do that—through classroom activities and competitions, and votes.
Great social studies resource. Lots of PRIMARY SOURCE material, as well as models for how to link to material, write secondary accounts that use primary sources. Great teacher resource!
The Presidential Timeline of the Twentieth Century
Fairly interactive, some primary source pictures, some primary source material. A great example of how a timeline can be used to show the flow of related events or just things that happen when.
