Kate Chopin's The Awakening
http://www.promar1.com/~stardog/
This site about Kate Chopin's The Awakening
displays a sense of humor that "is far enough off center to appeal to...many...high school students." A collection of seemingly "student-generated" essays discusses "characters, symbolism, and themes, as well as biography and criticism." Links include "biographies, on-line texts, and other resources," but several links are not accessible. "This is a fun site that...would appeal to many students and teachers."
Overall Rating: 3Kate Chopin

Here is a "comprehensive look"
at Kate Chopin, written by an undergraduate student at a "level accessible to the average high school student." Although the site is "unappetizing" to look at, and has no direct teaching resources, it does have a
"wonderful period-evoking photo" of the author and a good "workable biography." Teachers should be aware that the paper includes plot synopses which are "ripe for student plagiarism."
