EDSITEment - The Best of the Humanities on the Web
http://edsitement.neh.gov/

EDSITEment is a partnership forged in Spring 1997 among
the National Endowment for the Humanities, the
Council of the Great City Schools, MarcoPolo Foundation
and the National Trust for the Humanities.

EDSITEment offers a treasure trove for teachers, students,
and parents searching for high-quality material on the Internet
in the subject areas of literature and language arts, foreign
languages, art and culture, and history and social studies.

All websites linked to EDSITEment have been reviewed for
content, design, and educational impact in the classroom.
They cover a wide range of humanities subjects, from American
history to literature, world history and culture, language, art,
and archaeology, and have been judged by humanities specialists
to be of high intellectual quality. EDSITEment is not intended
to represent a complete curriculum in the humanities, nor does
it prescribe any specific course of study.

The EDSITEment experience includes:

a user-friendly website with links to over 100 of the top humanities
sites online lesson plans which integrate EDSITEment resources
to promote active learning.

EDSITEment was selected as one of five finalists in the Education
and Academia category of a Computerworld Smithsonian award
for Innovation Network. As a finalist, the EDSITEment website
has been accepted into the Smithsonian Institution's Permanent
Research Collection of Information Technology. The permanent
collection is the world's premier historical record of computing
applications and innovations. Finalists demonstrate clearly how
information technology is being used to improve society.
