Is Your School Y2K OK? Making Your Computers Millennium Ready you should teach a unit on y2k to students web site for teachers, has lesson plans, projects for understand computer history and current events.(10) Classroom http://www.janinelim.com/jae/99octnov.htm
Extractions: Making Your Computers Millennium Ready October 99/November 99, Journal of Adventist Education , written by Janine Lim What will happen when the year 2000 rolls around? Some experts think the situation is not that series. "Chances are, few school districts will experience a computer meltdown this severe when classes resume on Monday, Jan. 3, 2000." Others predict doomsday scenarios such as the following for K-12 schools: "Administrative computer systems scramble student records. Heating and ventilation systems shut down. District-wide computer networks grind to a halt. Security doors won't open. Voice mail systems fall silent. Payroll and accounting systems print nonsense numbers – and the staff doesn't get paid." Some computer programmers have become survivalists and are stockpiling food and other supplies. Marketers are taking advantage of the millennium madness and selling survival kits, generators, blankets, oil-burning lanterns, and more. How did this problem start? "When the first computer programmers went to work in the 1950s and '60s, they took a shortcut. Instead of entering all four numbers in a year, such as 1999, they used only the last two digits: 99. That way they could save valuable space in the computer's memory. Besides, in the 1950s, the year 2000 seemed a long way off! Computer experts figured that all the programs would be different by now. They were wrong. Many of the original computer programs from the 1950s and '60s are, in fact, still in use today. In addition, many newer programs simply followed the two-digit model for tracking years."

It's disturbing and provacative and profound and just a gas to watch. From the Wilderness Another incredibly good political site. Tons of free well-documented articles explaining recent events and the history that led up to them. The video they offer called The Truth and Lies About 9/11 will blow your mind. I highly recommend it. Dr. Phil Pop psychology. Fun and sometimes even helpful. The Psychology of Cyberspace If you hang out on your computer a lot, you might find this of interest.

Chad Cain: Teaching In The Twilight Zone about topics such as Constitutional rights, current events, and the 1999at the height of the y2k scare. To find some really nice lesson plans and discussion http://www.rodserling.com/ccain2004.htm
Extractions: by Chad Cain Greetings! My name is Chad Cain and I teach U.S. History and Government in Evansville, Indiana. I have been using the Twilight Zone in my classes for two years (the length of my teaching career) and I have found it to be very useful in several ways. I find that using Rod Serling's work in my classroom is very satisfying because of my students' reactions to the stories and the knowledge that his legacy is being furthered as another generation falls in love with The Twilight Zone. Many of the episodes also happen to be historically instructive, directly and indirectly. It goes without saying that these experiences have been positive and have led me to want to spread the word to other educators about the possibilities of using Rod's work in the classroom. First, I must address the concern of many teachers in today's world: state and federal standards. I would ease those concerns by simply stating that the kids in the classrooms of America today have been influenced by television more than any other generation. I find that most of my history students know more about World War II than any other topic in American history. Why? Because there is an entire genre of movies on the subject. These students also have the History Channel, which some of my colleagues have dubbed the World War II channel, because of its heavy emphasis on that topic.
