Virtual Museums

     In this lesson, students “visit” museums that have an on-line presence, create a list of museum links they’ve visited, and then assemble the photos from their visits into a slide show that’s shown to the class.    

    There are many sites available with a Google search. Students need to focus on a museum type, such as a natural history or modern art theme for their visits.

     Caution: there may be some material unsuitable for younger students, but there should be no issues for high school students.
