Using netTrekker's Famous Person Search, you can quickly and easily locate information about well-known people, including political leaders, athletes, scientists, artists, writers, and more.
How many times have you assigned a research project relating to famous historical or current figures, only to spend hours of your own time compiling a list of suggested people prior to assigning the project to your students? Who are the famous authors of the 19th century you’d like them to read about? What about African-American political leaders of the 20th century?
With netTrekker, compiling lists of famous people that meet your requirements in any category of ethnic and cultural heritage, occupation/profession, gender, and time period is quick and easy!
State Standards searching in netTrekker has been enhanced allowing you to better search for elementary and secondary state standards. There are several ways of searching for your state standards in netTrekker.
