Maine Memory Network

This website can be very useful to me in my classroom because I can have my students look up important scientific breakthroughs in Maine.  There may not have been many in Maine, but there has definitely been many labs and scientists who have published findings.  I could also have them research what the people of Maine were doing and thinking during a certain time period.  Then the students could compare what they found with the emerging science at the time and see how the science had changed Mainers culture and society.  Science can change how people live and how schools are taught.  So hopefully my students can find the influences of emerging technologies and the way of life of students and inhabitants of Maine.
