A Cool Way to View the Web

Rich Kiker recently tweeted a cool resource called "A Lot to Find-er-net." This site allows students to search four different websites on the same web page. Here are some interesting uses for this site:

• Have students compare primary sources and secondary texts regarding a historical event on the same web page.
• Have students create a brief "all about me" page showing their 4 favorite (school appropriate) sites and save it using a screenshot.
• Use it as a tool to require 4 sources for a paper or writing piece that students are completing in class. (A screen shot could even replace part of the "References" section.)
• Use it as an advance organizer of 4 websites you will visit during a unit.
