Hi y'all, With all this talk about ideas for museum education activities, I figured I'd suggest Joslyn Art Museum's "Curriculum Connections" (http://www.joslyn.org/teach/curriculum.htm). There are currently six Educator Resource Packets online, including: The Art of Construction: Elements of Architectural Design Greek Pottery: Visual Records of an Ancient Society Making Art Last: The Care & Conservation of Museum Collections The Maximilian-Bodmer Expedition, 1832-1834 Rules & Rebels in 19th-Century French Art Searching for Ancient Egypt: Art, Architecture, and Artifacts from the University of Pennsylvania I wish I could take credit for writing them; alas, they were put together by our wonderful Education Department and designed for our web site by me, a self-taught web-dude (with the help of FrontPage and some basic HTML/Java). Most have multidisciplinary application - language arts, social studies, visual arts, etc. Feel free to use them for nonprofit educational purposes, and share them in nonprofit circles. (We'd especially love feedback if you use them!) Those which will be added over the next year or two - depending upon my other duties - are: Show Me a Story Picturing Nebraska Visualizing Time: Art and Cultural Change Art of the 20th Century: The First Fifty Years Contemporary Native American Artists African-American Artists Animals in Art Arts of Asia Sincerely, Jay Heuman, Visitor & Volunteer Services Coordinator Joslyn Art Museum, 2200 Dodge Street, Omaha, NE, 68102 342-3300 (telephone) 342-2376 (fax) www.joslyn.org ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
