Connect with Tech

Museums are rich resources of artifacts, archives, and experiences. Today, teachers can access those resources to enhance student learning in more ways that ever before. Technology has allowed museums to make natural and cultural information free and available to those who visit onsite or online. This article features an online activity that engages students with a museum before they visit and helps them to share their experiences when they return to school. Examples of new technologies that are changing the way we visit museums are also featured.
