Looking at Ourselves and Others (CLN> CLN UPDATE for Monday, October 25)
-------------------------------
This global education web site is offered by World Wise Schools, a project
sponsored by the US Peace Corps. Its intent is to help students define
culture, develop global perspectives, and challenge assumptions. Lesson
plans are organized by grade level (3-5, 6-9, and 10-12) and, within each
grade level, there are several lessons targeted on each of the three
objectives. Lesson plans contain an estimate of class time needed,
materials, a statement of objectives, step-by-step procedures, debriefing
exercises, and suggestions for extending the activity.

[ des activités pour prendre conscience des préjugés et les combattre:

- pour le collège, voir les deux activités pour grade 3- 5 : utlisables dès
la 5ème, pour l'utilisation du présent comme caractéristique du sujet, la
minipulation des formes affirmatives, interrogative et négatives et des
adverbes de fréquence. Ces activités permettent de donner une dimension
socio-culturelle à des exercices en général centrés sur les personnages du
manuel ou les élèves de la classe.
- pour le lycée, voir les activités pour grade 10 -12 : des documents pour
réfléchir, des bases pour une discussion. ]

Invisible Web (from Curt Davis on [learn-net])
-------------------------------
The InvisibleWeb consists of searchable information resources
whose contents cannot be indexed by traditional search engines.
These include databases, archived material, and interactive tools
such as calculators and dictionaries. Since these resources
are embedded within thousands of individual Web sites, they are
not “visible” to the search engines of today. Even if a site
containing a database is retrieved, the search engine is unlikely to
take you to the database itself, requiring you to surf the site to
find it. Beyond the scope of even the most popular search engines,
this incredible wealth of information has been largely unexplored,  until now.
--> http://www.invisibleweb.com/
[ un moteur de recherche qui me semble plus efficace que les autres. Vous
entrez vos mots clés, puis, lorsque vous accédez à un site, un nouveau
moteur vous permet de rechercher un mot précis dans le site. J'y ai trouvé
ce que je cherchais depuis longtemps, un accès à '100 engineering e-journals ' au UK:
--> http://www.eevl.ac.uk/eese/
et 'mechanical engineering magazine' aux US:

LEONARDO'S INVENTOR'S WORKSHOP (CLASSROOM FLYER,  October 21st)
-------------------------------
We all know that Leonardo da Vinci was a genius with the paintbrush, but
did you also know that he was the first to systematically define machine
parts and write explanations of how they function? He also tried to combine
various machine parts to create a more complex or improved machine. Read
about his works here, and have your students try the classroom activity:
Sketching Gadget Anatomy. After completing this assignment, they
will be ready for the challenge of Be Inventive! where they can design and
create machines for specific challenges.
