    This free iTunes podcast is presented by Camille Chevalier-Karfis who, in each podcast, reads a French poem twice: once slowly, so that the listener can repeat the lines, and then at a more natural reading pace. She also speaks about the life of the poet, the poem’s language and vocabulary and analyses the text in clear, everyday French. The full text of the poems, as well as much more material - including audiobooks and language lessons - is available to paying subscribers on Chevalier-Karfis’s French Today website, which also includes a blog about French culture, travel, language, humour and cuisine.

    The official international broadcasting station of the Czech republic offers its programmes as podcasts in six different languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Czech and Russian. The station’s website features a wide range of content, covering current affairs, business, arts, culture, history and sport. The podcasts are available to be downloaded in mp3 format or can be streamed and archived material goes back as far as 2005. A typical example is this interview with head of the Czech National Film Archive, Michael Bregant, in which he explains how during the Communist era staff had to resort to subterfuge to hide and preserve valuable film materials from the authorities.

    The podcasts are accompanied by summaries, full transcripts and illustrated with stills and photographs. The History section of the archive is particularly interesting with sections devoted to 1968, the communist era, World War II and Czech-German relations. There is also some interesting contextual material in the form of illustrated essays, including a history of Czech radio and a detailed look at the history of Radio Prague

    This award-winning resource was created in 2011 by EUROCLIO, the European Association of History Educators. It offers a wealth of digitised material from museums, archives and other heritage institutes and is primarily aimed at KS4+ history students and their teachers, but has also been used for cross-curricular teaching, in subjects such as Geography, and some of the material would be of interest to those in Further and Higher Education.

    The impetus behind the site’s creation was to promote ‘the acquisition of cross-border historical knowledge and the development of critical thinking’: in other words to give students the knowledge and critical apparatus to compare the way in which historical events and developments have been presented in different ways by different nations, showing different national and political perspectives.

    The site is easy to navigate and structured to guide teachers though a variety of approaches to learning, by themes, locations and people. A Sources page gives access to digitised posters, paintings, maps, drawings and cartoons as well as a number of Audiovisual sources.

The videos in the History of Arts section are available in French and English versions. The site aims for quality over quantity, presenting a number of HD video essays, each of which, for the History of Art section, focuses on a single painting, including Hans Holbein’s The Ambassadors and Liberty Leading the People by Delacroix. Material for Economics and Science is currently only available in French. Some of the films can also be bought as DVDs.

    The Digital Humanities Observatory ceased its activities in August 2013. One of its legacies was this gateway to digital collections and resources from Irish museums, archives, galleries and universities, which provides online access to collections of letters, drawings, paintings, books, music and spoken word recordings, photographs, films and television programmes. The contributing institutions include national bodies like RTÉ Archive and The National Gallery of Ireland, and the Irish Traditional Music Archive, as well as smaller collections of cultural significance, such as the Doegen Records Web Project: a digital archive of Irish dialect recordings made during 1928-31 which comprises early Irish language recordings of folktales, songs and other material.

    One of the site’s most interesting features is its Discovery page which not only lets users to search across the portal’s different collections, but also allows the results to be displayed in a variety of data visualisations, including Bubble Visualisations, Dendrograms, Word Clouds, Tree-Maps and Node Links. The visualisation options are accompanied by useful notes, explaining suitability and offering tips for users on which visualisations are most appropriate for displaying and exploring different kinds of data.

    La Bibliothèque du Film’s online exhibition on Italian Neorealism, based on the writings of film historian and critic Pierre Sorlin, features only two film clips but makes up for the lack of moving images with a wealth of other material. Stylishly presented, in a monochrome design, the site is divided into two main sections. Les Films looks at key examples, including The Bicycle Thieves and Rome, Open City, both of which are illustrated with clips, augmented with synopses and analysis. L’Horizon Néoréaliste traces the history of the movement and discusses aspects of production, reception and the tenets of the movement according to its practitioners.
