So we’ve put together this really, really quick survey to help us find out how we can best help you. And, to sweeten the deal, we’re giving away several Amazon Kindles to survey participants!

- Use your own domain – for free! August 12, 2009About a year ago, we started selling domain names and the ability to use your own domain names on Edublogs blogs. Well, after we did that for a while, we changed over to the Supporter model and that became tricky… but no longer, because we’ve decided to bundle free domain mapping in with Supporter, so that [...]James
- Get Engaged November 8, 2009How do we engage students and provide opportunities to actively experience history?The University of California One outlines a cohesive plan at The History Project Website . Instructors “apprentice students in age-appropriate ways” to “learn to work with sources, consider different perspectives, analyze and interpret information, and marshal evidence in supp […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- Games! October 24, 2009I freely admit that I have always disliked playing video games; however, in today's world with modern students, instructors can expect that video games will engage and teach their students at all levels of education in ways traditional education does not.I prefer free games that are easy to access for me and my students. Some games are very simple cross […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- Returned from Disney and ready to Go October 11, 2009I've missed communicating with you in this history blog that was dormant for the summer.While away, my family took a vacation to Disney World where my two daughters had many dreams realized. This was our first visit, and I have to say that Disney World is more than cartoon characters and good marketing. It was an amazing place where technology, creativi […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- School Projects June 15, 2009I had a different blog post in mind, but after an arduous weekend that included tears and frustration of helping my first grader do a school project on Giant Pandas, I decided to change my plans. Last weekend I learned that in one week we had to write a paper, do an art project illustrating their animal, and be prepared to present information to the class. I […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- Memorial Day May 31, 2009Memorial Day is not just a long weekend for great sales at the stores. More important it is a day to honor soldiers who have fallen serving our nation. Congress declared the last Monday in May a national holiday in 1971. However, the celebration of Memorial Day dates back to Decoration Day, first widely observed on May 30, 1868 by General Orders No. 11 writt […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- Geo-mashups May 18, 2009One of my favorite presentations at the eLCC conference was a about educational use of Mashups. What’s a mashup? Wikipedia defines mash-ups as “a web application that combines data from one or more sources into a single integrated tool. The term Mashup implies easy, fast integration, frequently done by access to open APIs and data sources to produce results […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- Questions to Ponder May 5, 2009In April, I attended the eLCC conference and presented with Alice Bedard-Voorhees on New Designs for Assessment. Alice is the person I credit most for giving me an opportunity to teach online and for inspiring me to try innovative teaching tools and concepts. At the conference, I am pleased to share that Alice won the eLCC Faculty of the Year award. You migh […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- Progress versus Historical Preservation April 26, 2009This month we reviewed the history behind environment preservation, and today I conclude this brief look at conservation with a call for communities to preserve their history. It may not surprise you to know that my family picked its hometown due to the historic and small hometown feel of Mainstreet. Ten years later Mainstreet remains, but it has changed in […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- Topic of the Month: Earth Day- Wednesday April 22, 2009 April 19, 2009After several years of trying to draw attention to the deterioration of the environment, Senator Gaylord Nelson called for grassroots demonstrations and support for the first Earth Day on April 22, 1970. The first Earth Day permanently forced the deterioration of the environment and the dissipation of resources to the political arenas. The same year, Richard […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
- Environment April 12, 2009The environment and different sources of energy were major topics of the election in 2008, and yet recently this important issue has earned less media attention. Maybe this is because the economy has become the focus of President Obama’s first hundred days and maybe this is because he and other politicians are getting less pressure due to lower prices at the […]noreply@blogger.com (Karen Kaemmerling)
