What's the world's best study aid? Yes, it's the Internet, and it's full of databases and archives that can help you with class assignments.

The Student's Guide to Doing Research on the Internet breaks it down by subject. Turn to the Sciences section to see where you can learn how to dissect a frog. Or to the History section to find what battles were fought in the American Revolution.
