History fans will enjoy the rich collection found in the mini-archive, but student will often prefer the easier to understand lecture or textbook. However, this websites offers students a chance to BE historians by doing what historians actually do: delve into sources to draw conclusions. For many US History standardized tests - including AP - ability to read and infer based off primary sources is vital for success.

This is a hard one. While looking around this site I found information on a marvelous video that I used with my class "The Machine that Made Us" - all about the Gutenberg Printing Press. However, I was hoping for a site where the students would be able to look at some historical newspapers. This was not the case. While there are a lot of links to websites, blogs, and books this is not a place to have students explore historical documents. I was hoping for more. While it did lead me to some good information, you will have to spend time looking for that information on/in other sources.
