What I Learned at the NCSS Annual Meeting
Risinger, C. Frederick
Social Education, v71 n5 p248-249 Sep 2007
With nearly four decades of National Council for the Social Studies conferences under his belt, the author reflects on the valuable networking and stimulating sessions he attended, and highlights key educational websites from the increasingly technologically-adept exhibits. Here, he describes five websites that can be useful resources for classroom teachers at various grade levels. These include: (1) Cable in the Classroom (www.ciconline.org/home); (2) Constitutional Rights Foundation Chicago (www.crfc.org/index.html); (3) My Wonderful World (mywonderfulworld.org/index.html); (4) Choices (www.choices.edu); and (5) The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History (www.gilderlehrman.org/index.html).
