I have chosen 3 content exploration tools my class has found to meet academic standards.
My most favorite tool is http://www.brainpop.com/science/energy/energysources/preview.weml. It is called BrainPop and meets standard 3.3 for Physical Setting of Science. It is a reference tool because it is a video, but the site includes drill and practice and simulations as well.
Another one of my favorites is http://www.ngfl-cymru.org.uk/vtc/ngfl/maths/maerdy_2d/e_index.html. It meets the standard Gemoetry 2.4 for math. There is no ultimate goal of winning. It is more of an open ended tool that helps learn basic shapes. I think it would keep students interest and get them to think about shapes in a different way.
A final favorite is http://library.thinkquest.org/J002611F/. I think it meets the standard 1.1 for kindergarten social studies well. It is an easy way to be able to experience and see the lives of people in the past. Its great for kids because kids are the ones giving the information.
There are many great examples of content exploration tools my classmates found.
