If you follow my blogs you know I have been working with a group called
ContextU that is putting history in context. Right now we have this great page which covers US history from the causes of the American Revolution through all of US history. As we move to standards based learning it is becoming that much more important that students be able to connect their facts (we call them "nodes") together. On our site for each node you will see:
- 150 word description
- shown on a timeline so students can see other items across time
- the item on a map
- its cause and effects
- other similar nodes (facts)
As we head towards midterms, ContextU is a great way for your students to review.

I'm not going to lie. I could use some links for SEO purposes. On the bright side, you'll be saving countless souls from months if not years of torment and poverty. Thanks.
