Searchable Pacific Northwest History provides a comprehensive examination of our past that includes geology, Native American culture and traditions, and history from earliest times to beyond 2000 C.E. This searchable chronological series is designed to be interactive making it easy for students to find and record specific information quickly to generate a personal study of history.Traditionally, history is taught as isolated events rather than as interconnected episodes. Multiple events may occur simultaneously but presenting the interaction is problematic. This approach misrepresents the context in which historical events occur. Time is distorted as activities that take months or years are condensed into paragraphs or pages creating an incomplete sense of the effort involved.The internet opens a vast resource of historical material enriching our understanding of the past. Searchable Pacific Northwest History provides students a door into our past by using a computer to study history. Rather than learning about history students can now learn from history through research and writing their own narrative.
