What resources should we add for Teachers?

Teachers, librarians, educators of all stripes: what teaching resources would you like to see us add to Shmoop?

I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
To see ideas you have already voted on, select the “My feedback” filter and select “My open ideas”.

More info...

- enter your idea (new feature, etc) -

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

Our new Teacher’s Editions include 100s of free Assignments & Activities that help you integrate Shmoop into your lessons. These Activities are aligned with CA state standards (we plan to add more states over time). Check out our Teacher’s Editions and let us know what you think!

create games, such as "Jeopardy"

In my 11/12th grade class we currently cover fiction (1920s/30s). For some learning fun I created a Power Point Jeopardy with all kinds of questions about the literature and the times in which it is embedded. Prize: Winner receives a Homework bonus.

Make SOME teachers able to add different topics and add resources that add to different topics

I don't think ALL teachers should be able to, expecially since some could be impersonating a teacher and really be a student or someone just wanting to mess up the site. Maybe Shmoop could find some educators to lend some knowledge and add some more topics...

Would it be possible... Since time is a CONSTANT struggle, to have a direct link to ALL multimedia?

I would like to know if SHMOOP would add a link so that I can one stop shop - for multimedia resources - opposed to be divided among each curricular title. For example - I click a link and it shows me ALL the Movie/TV items suggested via SHMOOP. Some items are cross curricular - so if there were just ONE list, I could sift, explaore and determine what I need. THANKS!

create some shmoop widgets or search box for websites

Something that can be put on website to generate student interest in the subject matter. One for each section - poetry, literature and history. With changing headlines so they look often.

Begin adding ideas about how to incorporate technology with literature and history.

Make SOME teachers able to add different topics and add resources that add to different topics
