GENERAL RESOURCES

African American Education -- Teachers Page

There are two sites you can look at for more information on the Myers-Brigg.  You can go to mbti.org or keirsey.com.

The Youth Anti-Violence Initiative Help Centers

amazon.com  is a good way to locate information on resources of all kinds, including the authors and topics discussed in the course.  Although amazon.com is a commercial bookseller site, it is a good way to search for current books which are readily available.  It also contains reviews of other readers so that you can find out more about the book quickly.  Anything our library doesn't have, you can get through interlibrary loan.  You don't ever have to buy anything!

Get to search engine dmoz and look under "Education" (under "Reference") to guide your search for any education-related topic.
