Abstract

From the Publisher:This use-friendly handbook requires no prior technical knowledge in order for school media specialists, teachers, parents, and home-schoolers to get children learning online. A few of the hundreds of valuable suggestions and techniques that can be found include: a general guide to the best Internet resources for kids; information on setting up pen pal programs; ways to research and contact children's book authors and illustrators online; methods for taking children on virtual field trips; ways to enable kids to share interests with peers through Internet discussion groups.Screen captures of actual online sessions that can be copied for use in classroom presentations complete this informative and inspiring guide that is ideal for anyone who works with kids and has an Internet connection.
