Hello Jeffrey, I agree with Valerie's post. An on-line lesson plan cannot replace a real museum visit. There is something more enchanting and immediate about the museum environment, the docent- or teacher-led tour, accompanying activities, etc. It's what Walter Benjamin called the "aura" of the authentic. We currently have six "Educator Resource Packets" on-line - with text, images and activity suggestions. Teachers often use these as preparation before or follow-up after a Museum visit. Naturally, one can consider posting educational materials on-line as an opportunity to build your long-distance audience - teachers in schools (or home-schoolers) far away who can finally access your museum's collection(s). Best wishes, sincerely, Jay Heuman Visitor & Volunteer Services Coordinator Joslyn Art Museum 2200 Dodge Street, Omaha, NE, 68102 342-3300 (telephone) 342-2376 (fax) ******************************************* "Fine art is that in which the hand, the head and the heart Go together."
