11 Teaching Strategies That Effectively Use Media Resources was created in response to 9/11; however, these strategies remain valuable for teaching content knowledge and critical thinking skills. Go to http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/globalconnections/multimedia/strategies.html .
ReadWriteThink is the latest site added to marcopolo. Sponsored by the International Reading Association and the National Council of Teachers of English, the site provides lessons, standards and web resources for reading and language arts instruction. Go to http://www.readwritethink.org/
What is Digital TV and How Does it Work?, a site from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, explains what digital television will bring to us as TV users at school and at home. Using simple language and diagrams, this site introduces DTV, relates the history of TV, explains why the U.S. is converting to both a digital signal and high-definition pictures at the same time, and projects possible uses for DTV. See http://www.cpb.org/digital/tv/whatis/. Then follow the link to Digital TV: A Cringley Crash Course at http://www.pbs.org/opb/crashcourse/.
