For a remarkable presentation on human evolution, visit the Institute of Human Origins website for an interactive timeline and the online documentary Becoming Human (http://www.becominghuman.org/). It is absolutely incredible, detailed, informative, stunning, and fun. The Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of Natural History has a very well done online exhibit on human origins at http://humanorigins.si.edu/ . You can watch slideshows and videos on important fossil discoveries. The American Museum of Natural History’s digital Anne and Bernard Spitzer Hall of Human Origins is another terrific online resource (http://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/permanent-exhibitions/human-origins-and-cultural-halls/anne-and-bernard-spitzer-hall-of-human-origins). For information on recent research at Olduvai Gorge, go to the Olduvai Geochronology and Archaeology Project website at https://www.olduvai-gorge.org/index.html. Jim Foley’s TalkOrigins.org is another great website to visit. There is plenty there on new discoveries of fossil hominins, the evolution-creation “controversy,” and the evidence for human evolution (http://www.talkorigins.org/).
