AccuNet/AP Multimedia Archive

Product Highlights

AccuWeather, Inc. Education Division believes that all students should have equal access to learning resources that foster critical thinking skills and enable them to conduct cross-disciplinary research with a resource available to them in the school or from home.

The AccuNet/AP Multimedia Archive provides a sensory journey of photographs, audio sound bites, graphics and text spanning over 160 years of history. Student comprehension and recall skills will improve with visually stimulating imagery meant for use in research papers, theses, reports and PowerPoint presentations.

From simple keyword searching to more complex searches such as concept, color and category, students will enhance research projects with over one million photographs dating back to 1826 and as current as a few moments ago, tens of thousands of graphics, audio files dating from the 1920's, and news stories dating from 1997. Teachers will benefit from the correlation of the Archive to State Learning Standards as well as the National Standards for Learning.

The Associated Press has won more Pulitzer Prizes than any other news agency, and is the most credible source for non-biased reporting. Founded in 1848, the AP is the oldest and largest news organization in the world, and is an important part of modern-day world history, serving more than one billion people each day.

AccuWeather's Education Division has a long history of products designed to support learning in the classroom and the home. AccuWeather is the exclusive distributor of the AccuNet/AP Multimedia Archive.
