Ingrid,
The Mint Museum in Charlotte, NC has a great interactive section on their website. Definitely worth checking out.

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!

Ingrid Furniss
