22 maps and charts that will surprise you

22 maps and charts that will surprise you | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
These 22 charts and maps all told me something I found surprising. Some of them genuinely changed the way I think about the world.
Beth Dichter's insight:

If you are looking for some maps that will have students scratch their heads and consider come concepts in a new light this post will provide you with 22 choices. The one above intrigued me. It shows a map of the world, and has a circle that shows where more people live than the rest of the world. I suspect this image would bring up many questions, and that many would be interdisciplinary. Click through to the post to find many other great maps and charts.

Go Social Studies Go! Who Says that Learning has to be Lame?

Go Social Studies Go! Who Says that Learning has to be Lame? | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
Who says that learning has to be lame? Take the boring out of those old Social Studies books add in cool stories, links, and videos, and you get Go Social Studies Go.

Currently there are 6 sections: Global Religions, History (ancient, medieval, 19th & 20th century, colonial, American), World Geography, Choose Your Own Adventure (The Underground Railroad and Immigration with more to be added), History Legal Files (the Trial of Marie Antoinette with Brown vs Topeka Board of Ed. to be added soon), Cool Sites (a Scoop.it site by Go Social Studies Go), and Teacher Resources (a wikispaces site). It appears that additional information will be added. If you teach social studies check this site out, and share it with others!
