Resources
	Extraordinary or unique resources (human or material) needed to successfully complete this experience:

For The Student

• Students that have created web sites, CD ROMS or videos will need the necessary equipment to present their work.
• Internet Access
• Library Time and materials
• Might need TV/VCR, Computer, Internet Access, CD Rom burner.

There are a number of websites (as of December 2000) that are helpful in the completion of this project, including some we actually would want students to avoid. Below is a list of helpful sites followed by a description of how each relates to the learning experience.

• http://www.turnstiles.org/ - Song lyrics
• http://users.aol.com/jdsweeney/fire.html - Web site with the lyrics and links to information on each item in the song. I do not make information on this site readily available to students. It makes research too easy.
• http://www.nara.gov/ - National Archives and Records Administration has an image and document bank that is useful for obtaining historical pictures and documents.
• http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/ - The American Experience. PBS site has images and information about several of the items in the song.
• http://us.history.wisc.edu/hist102/ - American History 102; 1865 to the Present. Professor Stanley Schultz of the University of Wisconsin at Madison maintains this excellent site that has information and images on a wide variety of American history topics. Has an index of images.
• http://www.slip.net/~scmetro/sixties.htm - The Sixties. Has links to sites relating to the sixties. I found images for a variety of items here.
• http://www.lib.virginia.edu/exhibits/sixties/index.html - Psychedelic Sixties. Excellent resource for students with images and brief explanations.
• http://www.etronica.com/excite/index.html - Online encyclopedia for general research.
