Included in this site is an extensive teacher lesson page, African recipes, links to other African resources, and ideas for your students to create and produce their own plays. This site is a joint project of the African Studies Program and the General Library System at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The content focuses on all aspects of the African continent. Teachers who teach African studies and students doing research will find the site equally useful. Users can browse the resources by collection, country, subject, or through an interactive map of the continent.
Visitors can also search the site by keywords or multiple fields.
The images are high quality and the sounds are offered in two connection speed formats. The database includes an option for saving your selections as you browse and then e-mailing the records to your own computer. This is a terrific resource for people creating multimedia presentations, involved in African studies, or just interested in learning more about the continent. It offers more than just the obligatory syllabus, course plan and assignments links. Cora Agatucci has compiled an extensive list of sites on African history and culture as reflected in African oral tradition, literature, and film.
