Free Technology for Teachers: This Day in History Videos

The videos provide a quick overview of three to five items of historical significance from that day. The videos appear to be produced in one large lot so you can view videos from the entire week prior to a date. For example I've already watched tomorrow's "this day in history" video.

Applications for Education
If you need a quick warm-up or closing activity for your history lesson, these videos may be just what you've been looking for.

1968

Who better than AARP to present a multimedia overview of 1968 "The Year That Rocked Our World"?

This site contains a very comprehensive interactive timeline, with an event for nearly every day of that tumultuous year. The "Pop Quiz" is based on the timeline and could be a good follow-up exercise to a small group review of the timeline.
