Curriculum Resource Guide

Access to the World Wide Web can greatly expand resources in schools and homes, enhancing educational opportunities for students and their families.

This Curriculum Resource Guide is an expanding collection, initially created by graduate students in an educational computing course -- Integrating Computers into the Curriculum. Students in future classes will be adding to this, as they prepare pages to use in their teaching or other pursuits. Revision, refinement, and updating will be ongoing, so please bear with us as we are continually under construction.

The following classifications are not restrictive, and refer to the original primary perceived focus. Pages may be applicable to a variety of levels.
