Culture Online: History Headlines

Britain's Department for Culture, Media, and Sport, commissioned History Headlines, a site that turns historical education into the task of editing a newspaper. Targeted at grade schoolers it's another demonstration of how online interactivity lets folks construct their own artifacts, rather than just consuming them. From the buzz on the Web the site seems to be a hit, and something a lot of media sites could learn a thing or two from.

Wonder what it would be like to have a good Department for Culture, Media, and Sport in the US?
