This resource guide contains information about a wide range of archaeology related education materials available in North America. Resources listed include books, magazines, curriculum guides, resource packets, films, videos, kits of simulated artifacts, computer programs, games, museums, site specific resources, historical societies and organizations, and teacher- training programs. The guide is organized in three parts. "General Resources" are listed first, along with entries pertaining to archaeological techniques, theory, and world-wide archaeology. The next section, "Resources by Subject Area," which forms the core of the guide, organizes entries according to a given area of interest within a geographical region. Entries are listed by the name of either the institution providing the resource or the title of the work. Each entry lists geographical focus, chronological period, nature of the activity or material, topics covered, grade level, price, and a description of the resource with an address for further information. The third section is a "Supplementary Bibliography." Several indexes list the resources by location, grade level, culture, and specialized topic. The document concludes with a bibliography on archaeology for adults, Internet resources, and a list of archeological organizations. (MM)

The field school is often described as a “rite of passage” among archaeologists. They are considered essential for the appropriate training of students for academic or professional archaeological careers, and are perhaps the only universal experience in an increasingly diverse array of archaeological career paths. Jane Baxter’s practical guide about how to run a successful field school offers archaeologists ways to maximize the educational and training benefits of these experiences. She presents a wide range of pedagogical theories and techniques that can be used to place field schools in an educational, as well as an archaeological, context. Baxter then offers a “how to” guide for the design of field schools, including logistical, legal, and personnel issues as well as strategies for integrating research and teaching in the field. Replete with checklists, forms, and cogent examples, the author gives directors and staff a set of “best practices” for designing and implementing a school.
