June 18, 1999, Medford, NJ—CyberAge Books, an imprint of Information Today, Inc., has published two new titles for the education market, Uncle Sam’s K-12 Web, by Laurie Andriot, and Net Curriculum, by Linda Joseph. Both of these exciting new books explore unique Internet resources for K-12 educators, parents, and students.

Uncle Sam’s K-12 Web is the only comprehensive reference source for students, parents, and teachers that brings together information on federal government Web sites of educational interest. As the first book of its kind, Uncle Sam’s K-12 Web helps children safely surf the Web while enjoying the many fun and educational Web sites that “Uncle Sam” offers, while also providing parents and teachers with a guide to the vast amount of government educational material available online. Annotated entries include site name, URL, description of site content, and target grade level for student sites. Regularly updated information and links are provided on author Laurie Andriot’s Web site.

The second title released, Net Curriculum, also takes a look at K-12 Internet resources for educators, parents, and students.  Net Curriculum presents dozens of exciting online projects, Web sites, search engines, information resources, research tips, and “virtual” field trips—educator-reviewed, with coverage for all subjects and grade levels. Linda Joseph, a leading expert on the use of the Internet in schools as well as the “CyberBee” columnist for MultiMedia Schools magazine, developed this immensely practical guide for K-12 teachers, librarians, and computer/media specialists.
