Wonderful Resource for Social Studies Teachers.......2000-09-12

Kathleen Craver does a wonderful job in this book describing how to use primary sources in the classroom. The first three chapters describe the concept behind using these resources in the classroom.

In the next 200 pages, she shares over 150 websites that contain primary sources. For each web site she gives a summary of the site and gives five or six questions for discussion or activities for students. This book will save you hours searching the Internet for resources. It is well written and has a good index for locating topics. If you are looking for ways to incorporate the Internet in your lessons this is a great way to get started.

Book Description

Take a cyber journey through the world of science! Presenting more than 150 Web sites with primary source documents and authoritative data, this versatile book helps educators guide students on virtual scientific fieldtrips in all areas of science, from astronomy, biology, and chemistry to genetics, physics, and space science. Students can "meet" past and present scientists, follow along on scientific explorations, and learn about scientific conclusions and deductions. Each Web site listing includes a summary with historical background. Lively activities and questions are designed to motivate students to interact with the site, read and analyze the material, and draw their own conclusions. The questions and activities meet the standards set forth by the National Science Teachers Association and are designed to help students build critical thinking skills. Source material includes letters, journals, speeches, and papers. Related Web site suggestions, as well as appendices with additional science sites, periodicals, and organizations are also provided. This latest addition to the highly acclaimed Libraries Unlimited Professional Guides in School Librarianship Series helps teachers and librarians enrich the science curriculum and foster critical thinking skills. Instead of relying on paraphrased information, students will learn firsthand about such topics as the Hippocratic oath and the Human Genome Project, making this an essential resource and lesson guide.

Using the World Wide Web in secondary schools: Web for Schools, a European project

Book Description

A breakthrough is a discontinuous change that makes new things possible and takes performance in a market to a new level. This book is about creating breakthroughs in large organizations where so much energy is often committed to existing activity. Drawing on their wide experience of working with top companies including British Airways, BUPA, and Carphone Warehouse, Ray Langmaid and Mac Andrews argue that it is customers themselves who are best-placed to conceive great new products and services, but that they will need time and trust to work out how these might best be created. Traditional ways of talking to customers such as focus groups lack honesty and place perceptual barriers - what is needed is a new approach that is open, honest and ongoing. The solution is the Breakthrough Zone, a creative meeting of customer and executives in which desires are unlocked and needs identified. Versatile enough to be used with groups of any size, this process is built on personal relationships, and proven to generate really innovative ideas for brand extensions and product development.
Provides the tools and techniques to enable you to get closer to your customers - a step-by-step guide shows you how to implement the 'Breakthrough Zone' process
Explores why this type of communication is so much more effective than focus groups or traditional database-driven approaches to engaging in customer dialogue
Previous innovations generated in the Breakthrough Zone include BA's 'Beds for Business', BT's 'It's Good to Talk' and new market strategies for VISA and Dell

This book completely demystified the ISO certification process for me and broke everything down into clear, manageable steps. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is considering certification or whose company has already started the process. If you're going to be part of something, it really helps to understand the big picture as well as the individual steps, and that's what this book is all about.
