WHAT THE STUDENTS ARE SAYING:

"Before, when I heard the name of a country, I just thought of it as a name, and it didn't really matter to me. After you do a memory map, it's kinda neat because you can picture it in your mind, not only that country and what it's like there, but everything else around it. You have a map in your head wherever you go."  - Seventh Grader, Belmont, MA

US Census Bureau Pop Clocks
The US Census Bureau maintains these two Population Clocks for easy reference and consistent population estimates. There are links on this page for further information. If you search for other Pop Clocks, you'll find many, and you'll find that they often vary enormously in their estimates of US and World population. These two, from the US Census Bureau, are generally accepted as the most accurate.

NGA Geonet Names Server
There is an incredible amount of data and information here. Exploring it is the only way to figure it all out and to make sense of what's available for the average user. Start with "GNS Search - Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Viewer Page" and try clicking various options. You can "search" for a name by clicking the "search" button above the map; you can explore individual countries and regions. A great resource.

08 to 15 January, 2012

David Rumsey Map Collection
A brilliant and extensive historical map collection, with nearly 30,000 maps, divided into different collections. A very powerful search routine allows viewers to search by broad or narrow categories. Wonderful place to find the exact map you're looking for.

The OECD iLibrary
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development promotes policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world.
