I would recommend the website of the Museum of Anthropology at the
University of British Columbia, particularly the section under exhibitions
called "Prelude to a Totem Pole"

Subject: Interpretive Websites


>Hello Everyone!
>My project for a Museum Interpretation course is to analyze websites that
>serve a strong interpretive/educational role.  For example, interpretive
>websites might have collections displayed online with descriptive labels
>similar to an actual museum exhibit.  It might also have class activities
for
>teachers to download.  Similar to a museum tour, interpretive websites may
>have links guiding the viewer from object to object, concept to concept in
a
>systematic way.
>
>One of the best examples is the Metropolitan's new website, which I plan to
>use as one of my examples.  Do any of you know of websites, other than the
>Metropolitan's, that you would particularly recommend and why?  Thanks in
>advance for your input!
