Study Notes for Outlines
Mary Ward is going to be posting some ideas on my government blog and so from here I learned about Study Notes which has outlines for each chapter of world history. Obviously it is getting harder and harder for students to be assigned the traditional "take notes" homework as there are so many ways to get notes without the reading. But if you have a fool proof way to avoid this then Study Notes might be a very useful site. For example you could have students use the reading to complete a higher (Bloom's) level assignment and use the book and the Study Notes site to assist your students. By the way, if you have some good ones, please send them to me and I'll be happy to put them up here. Here is the site for world history.
