Public History in the AP U.S. History Classroom [] i. This site supports teaching and learning because it gives many ideas and ways to incorporate history into a teachers classroom. Furthermore, all the advice given in it and things that past teachers have done only give me ideas as to what i can o in my classroom to promote public history in the future. ii. While looking at this site I really didn't see any limitations, however, maybe the site could have been made to look a bit more eye catching because sites like that really do draw my attention. iii. in the future this website will be very beneficial to me. I will use it in my classroom for many ways. One way I will use it is by having many options of how to bring history into my classroom and make it fun to learn. A field trip is probably the best idea I got from this site and one of the things that I will use in my classroom.

High school Ace: Homework Help [] i. This site supports teaching and learning because it gives students the chance to improve their skills and practice on things that they may not fully understand the concept of. ii. The only limitation I noticed about this site is that its very confusing. I think most students would want help on a specific thing and it might be a bit frustrating to them when there trying to find that help and everything on the site is so complicated and busy. Although, for the most part the site was pretty organized. iii. I would use this in my classroom for homework help for my students. If they didn't understand something I would designate some point in the day of class for them to sit down for a half hour and explore the site. If they had a test the next day they could possibly work on the subject that they are going to be tested on.

Comments: I have some doubts about High School Ace's credibility but other than that, the site has alot of valuable information for students. In some subject areas wikipedia is cited as the main source making that info useless. However on the topics with credible resources, itd be a great tool for students unfamiliar with some points taught in the classroom. Also, the site is a little confusing to navigate with an overwhelming amount of links floating about. NO
