History Resource Center: World is a comprehensive
collection of award-winning reference, full-text articles from leading
scholarly publications, an array of primary sources, and images, maps
and charts which provide expansive geographic and chronlogic research
materials for the study of world history. From ancient Europe to Latin
America and from the Far East to the Renaissance, world history
curricula is supported with over 1,800 primary sources, over 27
reference titles and more than 110 journals.
Researching science topics has never been easier
— with Science Resource Center, thousands of topic overviews,
experiments, biographies, pictures and illustrations are just a few
clicks away and the latest scientific developments are covered in
articles from over 200 magazines and academic journals and links to
quality web sites. The database covers curriculum-related science
topics and offers teachers an easy-to-use tool to identify content
directly correlated to state and national standards.
