Gale Opposing Viewpoints database now at HHS!

If you are not yet using Gale Opposing Viewpoints with your classes for research and curriculum support, you may want to explore it. This is the first year that Homestead has subscribed to this database and it has a number of great features for both teachers and students.

Gale has a wide variety of content, from traditional reference to consumer-driven publications to more than 2000 academic journals.

The content is searchable by level, from easy-access (green) to general audience (yellow) up through academic content (red), which makes it accessible for students at a variety of achievement levels.

The content itself is easy to work with. All articles provide persistent links to content, an audio read-aloud feature, direct download to Google Drive, sharing to Google Classroom and a variety of annotation features. The coolest option is the ability to download annotated articles to Google Drive with the annotations intact.

Please explore this fantastic research tool with your students.
