Digital history in the classroom

Over the last 20 years, online representations of historical content have begun to fundamentally reshape the historical studies landscape. Examples abound from Google's recent unveiling of 2 million digitized historical photographs from Life magazine http://images.google.com/hosted/life to the wonderfully rich collection of historical documents available at American Memory http://memory.loc.gov to the massive and collaborative American Social History Online project at http://www.dlfaquifer.org/home

Join a group of scholars and students entertaining questions about how we might engage these resources in K-12 settings and in teacher education. The network is available at teachingdigitalhistory.ning.com. Hope to see you there.
