Attention Educators - Need a creative way to tie in computer websites into your lesson? Well, Time Magazine has just provided three ratings lists which are very informative. Do you want to know the 5 worst websites? How about the 25 websites we can't live without? And the 50 best sites? Go to the following links below for the complete listings:

A great way to use these listings in class: 1. First, ask the kids to brainstorm a list of what they consider the 5 best websites. You can share and discuss accordingly. 2. Have them access these listings to compare their list to the real one. 3. How close were they? Compare/contrast.
4. Discuss what makes these sites good/bad. How can they now learn to judge the websites they use? Obviously this can be done for all three separate listings. Have Fun!
