Abstract

T^he Educational Resources Information Center (ERIC) infor mation network is the largest database for educational litera ture in the world. One ofthe greatest strengths of this database is the interdisciplinary nature of its documents. These documents cover fields as diverse as science, rhetoric, and journalism, as well as the social studies. Each ERIC entry is preceded by a unique identifier. The EJ designation identifies the source as an educational journal. These are easily located in most academic libraries or are available through interlibrary loan. Items preceded by an ED designation encompass a wide variety of types, including research papers, books, conference proceedings, government documents, lesson plans, and many oth ers. These items are also available in many libraries, or copies can be ordered from the ERIC Document Reproduction Service (EDRS). For additional information, contact EDRS, 7420 Fullerton Road, Suite 110, Springfield, VA 22153-2852 or call (800) 443-3742 or e mail . The ERIC Clearinghouse for Social Studies/Social Science Education (ChESS) welcomes requests for searches regarding any aspects of social studies, such as lesson plans, instructional materials, research articles, and general information.
