TrackStar is a free service that helps instructors organize and annotate Web sites (URLs) into lessons.

You can find a track by searching by keyword, author, or themes and standards. Or, you can make or edit a track, make a quiz for your track, or build a web page for you track. This means that you can create your own curriculum web page that guides your students to the web pages of your choice. In addition to the web page information, you may ask questions appropriate to that web site and assess student learning.

The TrackStar tutorial helps you find a track, pre-plan a track, make a track, or edit a track. Additionally, TrackStar has many excellent lessons that have already been developed. For example by using the keyword "fitness" there were 232 lessons developed with titles such as nutrition, healthy heart, jump roping, locomotor skills, healthy nervous system, etc.

A project from Missouri which supports disciplinary teams working on curriculum revision and technology integration has excellent tutorials.
