12 Useful Sites for American Catholic Teachers

1. catholiceducation.org

Do you wonder about multiculturalism, teen sex, and other current issues? The authors of this site have articles on everything from abortion to the environment to multiculturalism. They even offer a link called “Teaching Resources” that leads to articles about the tougher questions Secondary students are sure to have. I like this site, in particular, because it deals with so many relevant issues of the day.

2. newadvent.com

Do you have a question about the history, context, or content of the Church? I always think it’s a good idea to begin with an encyclopedia. This site has just about every topic you can think of, including the documents of the Church Fathers.

3. catholicculture.org

How about a hub for all the resources–the Catechism, relevant articles, and a review of Catholic websites? Stop by this site. You will find a lot of useful information.

4. salvationhistory.com

How well do you know the Bible? If you are a Catholic teacher, you probably should be reading it everyday. Go to this site for free Bible studies and discover the connections that are hard to see with individual study.

5. catholictechtalk.com

Do you need help with the rapidly changing media forums? Would you like to connect with your students by updating your technology skills but seem to feel like they will be the ones teaching you? These authors might be able to help you with your questions.

6. ncea.org

This site offers some current resources on today’s Catholic school challenges. It also might be a good way to get connected with other Catholic educators around the U.S.

7. vatican.va

You can see what the Pope is up to, read the latest encyclicals, look at the Liturgical calendar, or dig for history. The Vatican site is immense! This site also offers documents in several other languages besides English.

8. ewtn.com

To read the headlines and find other resources, including Mass readings and celebrations, go to this site! It is lovely!

9. bigquestionsonline.com

What about those BIG questions about God and universe, science and the future? This site has several extremely intellectual people grappling with those very questions, opening the forum to discuss and discover.

10. americancatholic.org

Would like to learn more about the Saints? Who wouldn’t? The Franciscans can give you a Saint for every day on this site. It helps with history and direction.

11. 1flesh.org

This is a site created by young adults for young adults–it especially tackles the issue of sexuality through the most comprehensive lens of Theology of the Body. It’s great for those teenagers, especially since they are bombarded with misinformation.

12. usccb.org

This site comes from the Bishops. They have all of the hot topics, the daily Mass readings, and answers to other questions you might have about the Catholic Church in the United States.
