Room 30's Explorer Page.
We are students in Room 30 at Tom Matsumoto School in
San Jose, California. While we were studying explorers in
social studies, our teacher, Mr. Boismier, told us we
were going to make a web page! We all got together and
did research and painted artwork. Each group did a
different section of this project. We had a lot of fun
working on this project and hope that you will find it
useful.

South-Pole.com.
This site is dedicated to the heroic explorers of our
polar regions and the surrounding islands. The tales of
these brave souls were often related in expedition mail
sent home to anxious loved ones and beneficiaries. As you
browse through this site, you will witness an extensive
mix of reference material that will be useful to
philatelists and students of polar history alike.

The European Voyages of Exploration: The
Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries.
During the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries two
nations, Portugal and Spain, pioneered the European
discovery of sea routes that were the first channels of
interaction between all of the world's continents, thus
beginning the process of globalisation in which we all
live today. This tutorial introduces the student to these
two pioneering nations, their motivations, their actions,
and the inevitable consequences of their colonisation.
This tutorial also examines the geographical,
technological, economic, political, and cultural patterns
of that era.
