The Arts: On-Site and On-Line
http://www.bampfa.berkeley.edu/iu/

This website is the product of a year-long collaborative project between
the Berkeley Art Museum/Pacific Film Archive, Cal Performances, and K-12
teachers from several schools in the San Francisco Bay Area under the
umbrella of UC Berkeley's Interactive University Project. This group asked
the question:

"How can site-based arts organizations - museums and performing arts
presenters - best employ new technologies and the Internet to engage K-12
students in learning and experiencing the Arts?"

This comprehensive web site contains a full project description, all
meeting minutes, links to case studies, and a list of suggested "promising
practices" for using the Internet to foster improved education and
collaboration between arts organizations and schools. The information and
recommendations contained here may be useful for: K-12 teachers when
looking for educational resources on the Internet; museums and arts
organizations when creating educational electronic resources; performing
arts institutions, museums, and K-12 schools when planning collaborative
educational projects that will make use of technology and the Internet; and
the larger community of individuals and organizations wishing to make
effective use of electronic educational materials.
