Special Announcements

Enjoy the most recent updates! Mon 6/03/02, Mon 7/8/02 and Mon 8/05/02.

The graphic "Emu Walks" is an animation created with an excellent program called Animagic GIF Animator. The program is a joy to use (because it is simple) and the download site includes some great tutorials on how to use it... Put your lessons and assignments online or on the school intranet, and provide some visual interest with some simple animations.

All of the European pages have been moved from their current Earthlink site to a new location. Bookmark the Link to the right. European/Russian History. Please note that these pages are under revision. In addition, all have been tested for dead links and revised.

The General Social Studies page is also under revision and will be moved to a new server.

The most recent update (8/5/02) has again been posted at Fortune City. No complaints about the ads....

The only funding and support for this site comes from the two sponsors, The Social Studies School Service and the Concord Review. So...naturally, I strongly encourage you to support these folks with your purchases and subcriptions!

As time permits, the earlier "What's New" files (All year 2000 updates) will be merged into the main files. In the process, dead links will be removed and the main files revised. If you have some time this Summer, you might visit these earlier pages for ideas for the lessons you will be using.

Many thanks for those teachers who have suggested sites to add to this page. Send them to dboals@execpc.com or dboals1@earthlink.net

Please do not send requests for me to do research for you! See the Search Tools in the
Research and Critical Thinking page, and Research-It!, a one-stop reference desk, Xplore Reference or Wired Source: Reference Desk. I have also found John December's site -- Welcome to the Top of the Web -- to be an excellent starting point for research.
