Which is the right solution?

The link I put here is for you to copy and paste into your web browser page,
www.teachtci.com/resources/onlHistory.aspx

Then you can practice taking quizzes and gaining practice in using Multiple Choice questions.

1) look for this section:
History Alive!
Online Resources
History Alive! America’s Past

2. Choose the first line which says: • Internet Tutorial: An Interactive Guide
That will take you to a list of quizzes to choose and practice.
3. Please enter your name:
You will type your name in the box and hit submit.

4. Then at this time (9-17-07) We have covered material in quizzes numbers 1-6.

5. After taking the quiz.. you can copy your answers to a word processing document, then paste the answers there.
6. Save your answer doc. to your own documents folder, then email or print me a copy of that quiz. I can then count them as extra credit work, and ocassionally I will ask for one of those quzzes to be counted as a quiz.

Thank you for all the good work you are taking responsiblity for accomplishing.
