These days students are expected to take more active participation in classroom activities to achieve their educational goals. Then, how can teachers motivate students to be eager participants in class? This thesis addresses this and related questions, and suggests that the internet is one of the most effective tools available to make interactive teaching and learning possible in history class. It also shows that the internet provides the wonderful platform on which teachers can share and exchange information among themselves. In order to find out whether theses views make sense in our educational environments, specifically in history class of Middle School, the authors first created a series of web sits for classroom use. Then, they were incorporated in actual classes to find out students\' responses to the internet-assisted history classes. The authors also surveyed history teachers to find out their opinions about these sites. This study obtains the following conclusions. First, the majority of students show greater interest in the internet-assisted class than in the conventional class. Secondly, students participate more actively in classroom activities, either real or virtual. Last, most teachers agree that these web sites may be effectively applied in their own history classes.
