The Churchill Era: An Educational Resource

http://www.chu.cam.ac.uk/churchill_era/

The Churchill Era is an educational web site published by the Churchill Archives Centre, and has been specially designed for teachers and students of A-Level History courses. The aim of the site is to easily enable the use of archive material in the classroom. The site is comprised of three sections, the main focus being the A’ Level Exercises section where there are several exercises using a range of primary source material - including photographs, letters, speeches and memorandum - with accompanying questions designed to encourage analysis of the source. In addition there is also a Background section, which is essentially a dictionary of relevant people, places and events providing basic reference information for those unfamiliar with particular terms, and there is also a Teachers section, which provides guidelines to those using the site for teaching purposes.
