Demonstration: Demonstrations - Session 1

Beginning September 13, YouthLinks launched its redesigned Web site. This Web site, designed by 7th Floor Media, is even easier to use and navigate with enhanced features that add to its educational value. Articles on recent events in the news will be highlighted and we invite students to submit their comments, write an article and reflect on current and historical issues. There will be a discussion forum where students and teachers can share ideas with their peers across Canada, as well as teachers' resources and lesson aids on subjects in Canadian History.

This demonstration will show the educational value of this Web site and to illustrate how educators can use this site to enhance their teaching experience and aid in students learning.
