This educational website about ancient Troy consists of archaeological information, animations, geography, history, time lines, legends, myths and teaching and learning resources. The project is the result of a collaboration between the University of Cincinnati's CERHAS (Center for the Electronic Reconstruction of Historical and Archaeological Sites) and the Troia Projekt of the University of Tübingen, Germany. Major funding for this project has been provided by the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Art & Culture

U.S. Centennial of Flight Commission

This website, established to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Wright brothers’ flight, has a “comprehensive collection of outstanding educational essays, multimedia and links regarding the history of flight.”

History & Social Studies

U.S. Electoral College

This website, maintained by the Office of the Federal Register, contains information and statistics about past and present presidential elections.

History & Social Studies

U.S. History Resources

The U.S. History Resources assists students and teachers in high school U.S. history courses. For some, the understanding of the "big picture" gets lost in the sheer volume of facts, dates, people, and movements. When this happens, history can become more of a memorization exercise than a thoughtful analysis of how and why things occurred. This site attempts to simplify American history without making it simplistic.

History & Social Studies

U.S. Women's History Workshop

Resources for middle and high school study of gender issues in American history.
