Curricula for the Web
"It's All in the Design: Making it Work, Piece By
Piece."
from
the American Memory Project, Library of Congress.

This
excellent
site is designed to guide K-12 teachers through the
process of
developing and delivering curricula via the Web using
primary
source materials. The advice and tools can easily
translate to
any Web curriculum development effort. An added bonus
will be
to help archivists help teachers use their own
repository's collections
more effectively. Other recommended educational
resources available
on the Web are accessible from http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/ndlpedu/educators/workshop/design01/olinks.html
Macromedia

Software
for Web site development
Macromedia's
Dreamweaver is becoming a favorite of Web site
developers
in general. The latest version accommodates the free
Coursebuilder
add-on package specifically designed to ease the
development of
Web-based training sites. A demonstration version is
available
at http://www.macromedia.com
Another
software
package to look at is the Hot Potatoes suite. It
allows
you to create interactive multiple-choice, short
-answer, jumbled-sentence,
crossword, matching/ordering, and gap-fill exercises for
the Web.
