Tech Tools Websites

Wade's Delicious.com Links - I have bookmarked many, many, many, many, many sites for you and me to use in class so we can enjoy history more. Some bookmarks may be outdated due to circumstances out of my control.

US Studies Online Textbook (There is a "Talk to You" version listed on this site - Look for STUDENT EDITION WITH AUDIO on the page. I think that's helpful to everyone. Recommend downloading this file.

1st Headlines - Get yourself up-to-date on current events in multiple topics.

SAS Curricular Pathways - A website we at BHS will use from time-to-time. It has a lot of neat little activities for many subjects.

"Stuff You Missed in History Class" - How Stuff Works.com Podcast: (Also can be found in iTunes or using other podcast managing software, i.e. Beyond Podcast - See Google Play Store on Android devices.)

National Constitution Center iPhone App - Learn about the U.S. Constitution? on your iPhone?

Hunt4Freebies KINDLE - Here you can find Amazon Kindle e-books for free. They are updated nightly & the "freebie" does have an expiration. Make sure you do not pay for any book you download.

Hunt4Freebies NOOK - Here you can find Nook books for free, same as the Kindle.

Project Gutenberg - Another of the many other free e-book sites on the Internet. You can find many, many books in a variety of digital formats to fit your needs.

iTunes - Use this to locate TONS of FREE podcasts, video podcasts, music, etc.

PenDriveApps - For the computer geek (or those of us who want top-notch software without having to pay) check this site out. All the programs here can be loaded onto your flash drive & used on any computer.

LupoPenSuite - Want to have an entire working set of computer apps on your flash drive? Having problems doing some things on your home computer? Don't have MS Office at home? This may be your answer.

OpenOffice.org - Now you can finish your school projects at home, for FREE! OpenOffice is a FREE version of the programs you use at school in the MS Office suite of applications. I highly recommend this for all students who have access to a computer at home, but do not have MS Office (It's expensive, I know!)
     *There is a "portable" version of OpenOffice that you can have on a flash drive. Simply Google the term "Open Office Portable" and you should get the link.
