www.eduscapes.com: A favorite place to find information on whatever your next research paper is about.

www.yourtake.org: "We all know the true aim of education lies in its ability to equip our students for life in a complex world. In the classroom, it’s often a matter of what is “right” or “wrong.” In life, that’s rarely the case. For all of us, the key to success inside and outside the classroom is our ability to think critically. To help your students go beyond grades, we’ve developed a unique, interactive, collaborative tool called SCAN - where teens can work together to untangle complex problems head on". Many questions posed in subjects such as current events, social studies, and diversity.
