Earlier today the Library of Congress unveiled a project that, now that it’s here, I can’t imagine why it didn’t get here sooner, the National Jukebox. Now you can hear some of the rare audio recordings at the Library without having to schlep your Victrola to Washington, DC.

The Library of Congress offers online self-directed professional development modules. Most of them deal with finding, using and teaching primary sources.

About
Who I am: A fourth year high school history teacher at an urban(ish) high school in New Jersey.
What I blog about: Stuff related to education I like, and stuff I hope can help other teachers out. Technology, deals on supplies, helpful books. My focus lately is on educational technology & related resources. Occasionally, I also post things related to education reform. Because I post articles that I feel will be of interest to teachers with varying views, the political-related posts made here do not necessarily reflect my beliefs or opinions, nor do they reflect the beliefs of my employer.
What I like learning & reading about: Other teacher's opinions about and experiences with teaching & education. How I can enrich my classroom and reach out to my students. If you write about this stuff, let me know, because I probably want to read it.
What you should submit: Anything that could help a teacher.
