"Hot Sites" for teachers and librarians

[Cyndi Schoenbrun <schoenbc@EARTHLINK.NET>]

I found this on Gleason Sackman's Net-happenings mailing list.  If you are
not already a subscriber, you might consider becoming one.  This man must
get hundreds of email message perday.  He lists all types of Internet
sites, conferences and meetings, etc., but he leans heavily towards
educational sites.

To subscribe, send email to: LISTSERV@HYPATIA.CS.WISC.EDU
and in the body of the message, put subscribe net-happenings

Messages come in digest form, but you still may get two messages a day.
Most of my bookmarks resulted from the net-happenings mailing list.

From: Scott Kerlin <skerlin@teleport.com>

As long as we're on this topic, I will add a few links from my own online
"research library" that contain directories of "hot sites" for teachers
and also search guides as a small "thank you" to the many list members who
helped me with locating new resources in the past few weeks.

For Teachers and School Librarians, you can go here for a comprehensive
index:
http://www.teleport.com/~skerlin/teachersites.html

This is one of many collections in my Educational Research Room:
http://www.teleport.com/~skerlin/edResearch.html

For search engines information (including a wide range of guides on
effective use of search engines), go here:
http://www.teleport.com/~skerlin/search.html

or

http://www.teleport.com/~skerlin/research.html (this is my "library
reference room", which includes many other broad search resources in
addition to search engines)

In my technology courses at Portland State University, some of my students
are school librarians, so we have focused on building image maps to help
in scoping out our resources by category and subject. To see how I've
designed my own library imagemap, you can see this mapsite, with clickable
text for each collection:
http://www.teleport.com/~skerlin/librarytour.html

Because I've designed my entire site as a "virtual learning organization",
I also created an image map for the entire site:
http://www.teleport.com/~skerlin/roomtour.html

Managing a large site like this takes a lot of time, but I'm continually
exploring ways to make it most beneficial for users while maintaining it
as a comprehensive research tool for both K-12 and postsecondary folks.

Hope these help, and thanks again to all of you,
