Free Resources from the Net for (Special) Education

Welcome to this Treasure Chest of Free Stuff.

Here’s an online resource with much to offer for teens as well as for anyone involved in working with them both in and out of school. This one’s on my Content & Curriculum page, but it is a resource that can also enhance productivity.

TeenSpace - Internet Public Library for Teens (online resource) The part of the Internet Public Library that is geared toward teens is a truly amazing free resource for teens and those who support them. This website offers a large and well organized collection of valuable links that point teens to sources of relevant information–both academic and otherwise. The site is uncluttered and ad-free.

To give some idea of the range of material that is catalogued, the home page features the following “Hot Topics”: School and Homework Help; A+ Writing; Graphic Novels Guide; Poetry Wiki; FAEQs (Frequently Asked Embarrassing Questions); Procrastinator. The home page’s “Directory” consists of the following headings: Clubs and Organizations; Reading and Writing; Health and Sexuality; School and Homework Help; Money and Work; Sports, Entertainment and Arts; Technology. This site and many of its component pages deserve to be bookmarked.
