Gateway to Educational Materials is a GEM

by Tim Wilson on March 2nd, 2005 Clip to Evernote

The Gateway to Educational Materials is a online, searchable database of thousands of educational resources scattered around the public Internet. One of the things I like most about this site is the way that you can narrow your search results by subject, type of activity, grade level, and keyword. Take this search for “ancient greece,” for example. That query returns 37 items, most of which look pretty solid. The same search on Google returns 8,840,000 results. If I’m a classroom teacher, I like my odds with GEM.

    It’s all RDF, too.

    That’s cool. I also noticed that it’s a Plone site.
