Daily Facts in the Classroom
The great feature Daily Fax now has a user's guide with ideas about how to
use the newsbriefs in the classroom. The Daily Fax gives you a fact about
the world everyday -- a bit of information you won't readily find
elsewhere. For instance, did you know that India has one of the world's
largest programmes for renewable energy which, among other things, has
taken solar lighting systems to 180,000 homes? Did you know that 83 per
cent of respondents in an American survey believed that their country
consumed too much? Or that more than half the world's population live
within 100 km (60 miles) of a coastline?
