Other Spots on the World Wide Web


The World Wide Web offers such a wide variety of information that it is impossible to sum it up in any number of words. The best way to see what the web offers is to take a look for yourself. I have included some links to other web sites that may be of interest to you. These pages will, in turn, link to other pages, which will link to others, and so on. Be sure to keep your eye on the clock, as you can easily lose yourself in the vastness of the web.

The Town Of New Castle

Information on the Town of New Castle. This page is part of the town's participation in a state-wide internet project.

Lycos and Yahoo

Two great starting points for web exploration. Yahoo is more of a Web index where Lycos is actually a search engine. Don't worry about the differences. Just know that they're both really cool.

Hotlist of K-12 Internet School Sites

EdWeb: The On-Line K-12 Resource Guide

"EdWeb is a guide to the world of educational computing and networking maintained by Andy Carvin of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The site provides access to many useful resources for K-12 teachers--some interactive--including discussion groups, lessons plans, and firsthand teaching experience stories. The interface is simple to use and offers access to an online technical dictionary on every page."

Web 66

"Just as U.S. Highway Route 66 was a catalyst for Americana, we see the World Wide Web as a catalyst that will integrate the Internet into K12 school curriculums. The University of Minnesota is beginning project Web66 to facilitate the introduction of this technology into K12 schools. The goals of this project are:

  1. To help K12 educators learn how to set up their own Internet servers.
  2. To link K12 WWW servers and the educators and students at those schools.
  3. To help K12 educators find and use K12 appropriate resources on the WWW."

New York Schools on the Web

Other New York schools on the web.

NYSERNet

Many internet resources can be found here, including the NYSERNet Gopher server.

Westchester Library System

Keypals

A huge listing of secondary schools around the world. Actually, they claim to have every secondary school in the world that has a homepage, but that's hard to believe. It is worth a look though.

American College/University Admissions Office EMail Addresses

A very comprehensive listing of email addresses from colleges and universities in the US.

College Town!

"If you are interested in furthering your education, then CollegeTown is for you. You can research over 10,000 postsecondary schools, learn how to secure financing, communicate directly with college admission professionals, and much more."

FinAid

The Financial Aid Information Page - Well worth a look, considering the cost of going to college these days. And it's free.

You have to fill out their guest book, but they have a lot of interesting and useful information.
