Using the Internet to Enhance Learning in History

This web has been reconstructed from the content web appearing on page 37 of the Ben Walsh's Teacher's Booklet 2004 which was written to support students and teachers wishing to make full use of the superb range of resources available within the National Archives. The notes are legible from the Inspiration file.

All the cloud-shaped objects are hot links to websites, just click on them. The sites with a light blue cloud are Scottish sources added to the original web by Jim Birney, Fife Education.
