An LSU Digital Library Collection enhanced by rare and original historical maps provided by Transportation maps providedby the Louisiana State Museum The educator can teach all of the lessons http://diglib.lsu.edu/TAH.nsf/Web/TAH
Extractions: Original documents such as diaries, maps, photographs, speeches and memoirs are the raw materials of history. As part of the historical record, these clues provide physical links to the participants and witnesses of past events and enable researchers to view those events from multiple perspectives. By revealing the language, values, hopes and fears of people who lived in the past, primary sources humanize history and add dimension to the names and facts detailed in books. When introduced into the classroom setting, historical artifacts become powerful tools with which students can critically analyze events of the past and imagine the possibilities for their future. The TAHIL collection also contains original documents concerning depression-era Louisiana and detailing Huey P. Long's "Share Our Wealth" program. From the Historic New Orleans Collection, a variety of original broadsides and speeches offer insight into the popular appeal of Long's Louisiana program. Transportation maps provided by the Louisiana State Museum illustrate the results of Long's massive road-building program. The Louisiana State Archives Collection offers researchers a unique opportunity to critically assess the relief programs implemented during the administrations of Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt. As part of the Archives' collection, the 1932-33 records of the outgoing Urban Relief Administration detail the results of their relief programs in Louisiana. For comparison, the 1933 records of the newly established Federal Emergency Relief Administration detail the goals and objectives of FDR's New Deal administration.

Extractions: Traditional maps come in many shapes, sizes, and projections. Resources for classroom (K-12) map data have traditionally been bound to paper media. Textbooks and the maps contained therein, expensive large format wall maps, atlases and other map reference data are difficult and expensive to update rapidly. Changing world events continue to exacerbate this problem. Technological solutions provide a range of new choices for manipulating, viewing and analyzing map data. Advances in compact disk read only memory (CD ROM), graphics, computer processing, and software are enabling us to view maps in "softcopy" vice hardcopy. Electronic atlases feature base maps, city maps, elevation maps, and feature data associated with the maps. The focus of this "paper" is the map data available on the Internet. The information highway has become an information enabler. Educators and students are viewing map data in new ways. A variety of maps and map-related data is available on the Internet. Authors of this information include government organizations, universities, educators, journals, and commercial industry. A subset of that data has strong application to geography education, at the K-12 level.

GeoMatters: Products - History school year parallel those of utilizing outline maps. sometimes shocking to discoverfamiliar historical events occurred It's common to teach history in neat http://www.geomatters.com/products/history.shtml
Extractions: Nothing puts history in perspective quite like a timeline. The benefits of using a timeline throughout your school year parallel those of utilizing outline maps. It's fascinating and sometimes shocking to discover familiar historical events occurred during the same time period or didn't occur as closely in time as you'd thought. It's common to teach history in neat, little packaged topics. Missing from the picture, however, is both chronology and a clear understanding regarding how one nation's events affected the history of another. Using timelines faithfully, fills in that gap. Have students record historical events on the timeline and watch them improve their perspective of history and perhaps enhance their memory retention as well! Two and one half inches between lines provide space for overlapping events. Side one is dated from 4000 BC to 2050 AD. Side two is undated for any variety of in-depth studies. Attach pictures, symbols, or the Historical Timeline Figures described below, to the laminated surface for added detail and color. (Post-It Glue Sticks work well for this.) If you like a timeline to stretch out across the room you can simply cut this one in strips along the dotted line and tape it together to form 21 feet of history!

The team includes Peter Vujakovic as general Editor, with Giles Darkes and Alastair Pearson as Assistant Editors. The new team wishes to thank David Green, the previous Editor, for his hard work and for smoothing the transitional period. There will be some changes in style, mainly to enhance the clarity between key sections of the journal. The rather ambiguously named 'Shorter papers' section will be replaced by several new sections. First, 'Observation', a key-note essay or opinion piece which we hope will stimulate comment and debate. Secondly, 'Survey', collections of shorter papers or work in progress, this will involve the publication of material from conferences, working parties, and workshops as short, distinctively packaged collections. And finally, 'Viewpoints', which will effectively replace the old 'Shorter Papers' section, and include miscellaneous material - e.g. historical notes, progress reports on individual projects, personal reminiscences, technical matters, and so on. Look out for Gilcs' scoop in this section - a paper by Vanessa Lawrence on the future of the Os.

Evaluations Of Three Duke Classes the production of regions; and historicalgeographic perspectives Karen Wigen's enthusiasmfor maps spread to me it will be impossible for me to teach a history http://www.duke.edu/~cokerdem/classevals.html
Extractions: ANALYSIS OF THREE DUKE CLASSES Coursework is an integral component of the Duke MAT program. In fact, the reason I chose an MAT program instead of an M Ed had to do with the coursework. Duke's MAT certainly has some education courses and pedagogy; however, it is done in as practical a way as possible. The vast majority of my classes were a blend of undergraduate and graduate history classes. They ran the gamut from history to political science to geography. Enduring the academic rigors of Duke coursework was the perfect, albeit at times insane, complement to the teaching internship. Being an effective teacher requires effective pedagogy as well as a broad and thorough background in one's field. Below, I have evaluated three of my Duke courses: History 108F, Introduction to North America Course Description I took this course during the spring of 2000. It is also cross-listed under half a dozen other subjects, Economics, Political Science, and Sociology, including Canadian Studies and Spanish. Obviously interdisciplinary in nature, it sought to explore the economic, political, and social relationships among the US, Canada, and Mexico. Work Completed The course consisted of a mix of primary and secondary source readings that spanned several hundred years of history. The professor divided the course into three parts: North America in Historical Perspective, The Contemporary North American Stage, and Contemporary Issues. For each part, we wrote an eight-page analytical paper.

Publicity Some Results from Surveys to Faculty and Community Members - asking the question: What data would you like to see included int the Arizona Electronic Atlas? From: Jake Elkins, member of Sustainable Borderlands Planning (a non-profit corporation). Address: 1309 E. Lee St., Tucson, AZ 85719 I would like to see components including threats to health such as pollution sites. I don't think that would be addressed clearly under a 'health' component. I've started a data set plotting the over-170 EPA listed sites in Tucson which may be future Superfund sites but have run into address problems. Most of the listings are for the company offices rather than the hazardous wastes themselves. If I had the time I would go out with a gps and locate all the sites. I feel such information could be quite useful to Neighborhood Associations, school students, and residents in general. Most folks have no idea about the toxic locations/industrial releases in their neighborhoods. If you have a short list of people quite interested in this project we would really want to be on that.
