About the Author :
Kathleen W. Craver is Head Librarian at National Cathedral School in Washington, D.C. She is the author of a number of Greenwood Press reference books, including School Library Media Centers in the 21st Century (1994), Teaching Electronic Literacy (1997), Using Internet Primary Sources to Teach Critical Thinking Skills in History (1999), and Creating Cyber Libraries: An Instructional Guide for School Library Media Specialists (2002).

Review :
This comprehensive resource covers important topics such as 'The Sally Hemmings and Thomas Jefferson Connection (1802),' 'Great Chicago Fire (1871),' and 'Plessy v. Ferguson (1899).' Each essay provides a synopsis of the person, event, or place; term-paper suggestions; alternative projects such as making related movies or designing broadsheets; and a listing of accessible primary and secondary print works, and multimedia and Web sources. The term-paper suggestions are thought-provoking and can easily be turned into thesis statements, and the Web sites are highly authoritative and have exceptional links for further research. What is particularly useful about this excellent guide is that it not only gives recommendations but also encourages students to think around a problem by suggesting alternatives. One hundred events, including a few individual person, organizations, and trends, represent a time and place marked by social and technological change and political and economic diversity. The format does an excellent job of offering quick and concise access to both idea generators and starting research points for high school and community college students through an overview paragraph, primary and secondary print resources, Web sites, and multimedia in addition to well-crafted suggestions for traditional term paper topics and alternative projects that use media or performance. Prompts are flexible enough to be easily adapted but work well as is. Descriptions of historical events are written in student-friendly language which might be used verbatim in helping students chose their own topics. The quality of the assignments is consistently high and models for teachers and school librarians the principles of thoughtful instructional design. Highly recommended for high school and community college libraries.
