We are currently building this page to help history and social studies teachers, instructors and professors find useful online resources. This project will probably never end because new sites are continuously created and old sites disappear. We have already blown past 51 great online resources. If any of the resources link to a dead page or you would like to suggest a useful site please send an email to contactdailyhistory@gmail.com.

The site also has a section on Student Activities. There are over 200 different student activities that can be used in classrooms. These student activities include texts, videos, and interactive maps.
EDSITEment! is easily one of the best resources for teachers and instructors.

State Encyclopedia WebsitesOnline History Encyclopedias and Archive Collections:
Many states have created online Encyclopedias history websites through state historical organizations, state universities, university presses, and state humanities organizations. Some of the sites are fantastic and others are a little pretty underwhelming. Still, if you need your students to write about your state or a doing a state-based history project, it can be a good place to explore first. Additionally, some states have websites that can direct students to archives but most of these archives are not online. I am also concerned that some of the state resources for archives are not considered secure by google. While that is both concerning and embarrassing, it probably should not prevent students from using the websites.
