- A good site for social studies and
history educators is the Digital Classroom of the National Archives and Records
Administration. This site, at www.nara.gov/education, provides teaching activities,
excellent articles, "electronic workshops," and a wealth of primary documents
and sources.

- The Gateway to Education
Materials (GEM) project at www.thegateway.org, which is sponsored by the U.S. Department
of Education, provides educators with quick and easy access to the substantial, but
uncataloged, collections of educational materials found on various federal, state,
university, nonprofit and commercial Internet sites
- In September 2000, Zillions
magazine, published for young people by Consumers Union, discontinued its print
publication and switched to an interactive Web site for kids. The new site at www.zillions.org is
packed with kid-tested reports on toys and other products popular with young people. The
Web site contains no advertising.
