We have a good example of using interactive Web resources
for teaching and learning at www.humanities-interactive.org .
This project is sponsored by the Texas Council for the Humanities
and funded in part by NEH.

Dear Jan Rybicki and fellow humanists
Let me blow my own trumpet a bit. Here at CSAC we are producing a large
amount of teaching material that is distributed via WWW.
Among this are online archives of fieldnotes and the monographs based on them
http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/TVillage/
As part of the Experience Rich Anthropology project
we have related chains of articles and some field data which can be
analysed in the light of those arguments
http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/ERA/Ancestors
there is an interactive mambila "riddle machine" in which you can partially
expereince the delights of Mambila riddles (and read ana rticle about
african riddling) - soon to have sound files added (no frames works best at
present)
http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/ERA/Riddle/riddle.html
and most recently there is the online Mambila Spider divination in which
you can ask hard and obscure questions to a java based simulation of this
system as well as reading articles about its sociological and conceptual
importance!
http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/ERA/Divination/
a catalogue of other material - such as the history of display at the Pitt
Rivers Museum, Oxford - can be found at
http://lucy.ukc.ac.uk/ERA/pub_cat.html

Not related to top sites, but also of interest to the list:
The Sawyer Seminar Program
Computer Science as a Human Science: The Cultural Impact of Computerization
http://humanities.uchicago.edu/sawyer/CSasHS/
In each quarter, comparative perspectives about
computing cultures of several regions will be
combined with their respective histories of print
culture in order to identify and analyze cultural
variations. Each quarter's program will invite
distinguished lecturers and scholars from abroad
and from the U.S. to participate in the bi-weekly
workshop and quarterly conference. We plan to
compare computer cultures in the U.S. with a
selection of nations/regions: Brazil, Japan,
Russia, Scandinavia. Each presents a distinct
cultural, linguistic, political, and economic
profile, as well as a different experience with
computerization.
