A War in Perspective: Public Appeals, Memory, and the Spanish-American Conflict
Alfonso W. Quiroz, Curator, Professor of History, Baruch College and Graduate School and University Center, City University of New York.
Part of a series of exhibitions and programs at eight cultural and academic institutions in the metropolitan New York area, this exhibit was curated for the New York Public Library by Professor Alfonso W. Quiroz. Designed to commemorate the centenary of the Spanish-American War, the site explores the patriotic appeals in newspapers, pamphlets, popular literature, maps, music, political cartoons, images, and motion pictures. It traces the sources of these public campaigns and perceptions of the war in Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Philippines, Spain, and the United States, and how these campaigns contributed to popular sentiments about the conflict. The exhibit is divided into five parts: Antecedents (1895–98); Public Appeals (1898); Popular Participation (1898–99); Public Memories; and Historical Perspectives. Each section contains text and approximately five to ten images. There are also chronologies of the Spanish-Cuban-American War (1895–98), the Spanish-American War (1898), and the Philippine-American War (1899–1902). An exhibition checklist gives a list and 25-word descriptions of items in the exhibit. There is a bibliography of 26 scholarly works on the Spanish-American War as well as links to 13 other Web exhibits related to the war. The site contains no index or keyword search mechanism, which makes searching for specific topics somewhat cumbersome, but it is a good source for research on war and memory and the Spanish-American War.

Sentenaryo/Centennial: The Philippine Revolution and the Philippine-American War
Jim Zwick.
An extensive resource for exploring the history of US imperialism and its impact on both US and Philippine history and culture . Topics include “The United States on the Eve of Empire,” the “Spanish-AmericanWar,” “Images of War and Empire,” and “Nation, Race, and Gender.” This site offers over 2,000 pages and over 750 graphics, including many of Mark Twain’s anti-imperialist writings, and hundreds of scholarly essays, and primary documents, ranging from contemporary articles to literature and songs. The site grew out of discussions begun at the first North American conference on the centennial of the Philippine Revolution held at Loyola University in Chicago in April 1995, and has continued expanding ever since. The flashing advertisements are the main disadvantage.

Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) Resources for Teachers
The U.S. Department of Education’s National Library of Education and ERIC Clearinghouse on Information and Technology.
An annotated gateway to thousands of online lesson plans, curriculum units, and other teaching resources in subjects such as history, art, religion, social studies, economics, and gender studies. Organized according to six sections: Education News; K-12 Instruction; Health Resources; Teacher Development; Lesson Plans; and Teaching with Technology. Furnished by ERIC, “a federally funded, nationwide information network designed to provide you with ready access to education literature.” Linked to the main ERIC site Educational Resources Information Center, which offers resources in 15 additional clearinghouses, all feeding into “the largest education-related database in the world—containing more than 1,000,000 records of journal articles, research reports, curriculum and teaching guides, conference papers, and books,” to which some 33,000 new records are added annually. Both the main site and this one specializing in teaching resources are searchable. They are of exceptional value to teachers in all disciplines. U.S. history teachers will find more than 20 gateway sites for lesson plans that use the Web to help students explore topics and periods in American history. Materials also encourage students to appreciate the value of studying the past through activities that involve them personally, such as connecting family history with larger narratives and conducting oral histories with older people they know.
