From the Back Cover

Bring the world into your classroom!
Every month, 15-20% more K-12 schools connect to the Internet. But connecting is one thing -- succeeding is another. Educator's Internet Companion brings together all the ideas and resources you need to use the Internet to its full potential. Learn exactly how to use the Internet to bring topics to life, make education fun, and foster independent research. No other Internet book includes all this:


*30 lesson plans covering all grade levels, including English, history, math, science and social studies

*A Web tour of eight great educational sites, with quick "snapshots" of 50 more

*Sample policies to make sure Internet access isn't abused

*Funding sources for your Internet projects

*Information for newcomers, including a "netiquette" guide and glossary

Discover practical resources you never knew existed: free bulletin boards for teachers... sources for 1,000 more lesson plans... mailing lists and newsgroups with up-to-the-minute information about your field... and much more. All written for educators, not computer experts.
If you're bringing the Internet to your classroom, listen to Boardwatch Magazine: “Without a doubt, if you can buy just one book, make it the Educator's Internet Companion.”
