[Teachldsseminary] CHAT: D&C/Church History Resources

[sjagnana@mac.com]

I too agree with all that has been said and truly enjoy the new  Annotated Scripture resource.  It is terrific.  But just in case you missed the info...  I am sending the CES link to both the teacher and student sites.  They are the new and improved updated sites and they also are terrific.  Take the time to look around and you will find great resources.  They are now providing mp3 downloads for scripture mastery as well as the soundtracks from our seminary videos that we and our students can access!  They have really done a great job in organizing and correlating numerous talks and CES seminar information by course of study.  So they are making it much easier for us to navigate their site and help us out as well.  They also provide links to other sites as well such as byu digital libraries and others that are remarkable.   I have enjoyed reading past CES administrator talks to gear up and be right on track!  I can't wait to share with my students all that is available for them on the Seminary site.  They can access youth articles, sm, downloads, manuals for makeups, etc.  What a great thing!
Enjoy!
