Re: Internet sites for countries

[Betty Hamilton <bhamilt@TENET.EDU>]

Hello, Janice and Group,

Just such information about countries is what we in Texas have been
battling for. Our TENET site <http://www.tenet.edu> has been furnishing
us with links to our TEKS (Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills)
requirements. If you can access that site (don't know if you can since
you aren't in Texas), click on RESOURCES on the home page, then go to
HALLS OF ACADEMIA, then click on HALLS OF GEOGRAPHY.

Our TENET staff and hundreds of Texas volunteers have been sending web
sites to the person who has kept that section up. The wonderful part of
our having access to that site is that we educators sent only sites that
were valid and useful, so our students and teachers don't spend hours
sorting through propaganda or less than reliable web sites as they do
when they use a general internet web search.

We think an agreement has been reached that will allow us to keep that
TENET web site. We aren't sure about the tenet.edu addresses at this
point, but we may get to keep that, too, but the fee will be a bit
higher than $5.00 per year!

Betty
