eLearning activities 7 AND 8

(April 2^nd AND 6^th assignments for A day; April 3^rd AND 7^th assignments for B day)

For the next TWO class period’s activities, you will explore one of the many, now-free digital learning/cultural experiences being offered by various organizations and institutions. Because of the pandemic/crisis, many institutions have offered free touring/visits to their various sites. You will choose TWO for your work for me for the next 2 class periods.

After you choose the two you want to explore, visit their websites by Google searching or using the links below, and just spend some time looking around!

                -Watch some videos

                -Take virtual tours

                -Click on several of their exhibits

                -Listen to an AudioTour

                -Read about the museum’s offerings and overall message/vision

                -Engage in any interactive digital materials they have

                -Whatever they are offering!

You should spend about THIRTY MINUTES exploring your chosen site. Then, write a ½ page reflection of your tour.

Requirements:

Must introduce reflection by stating which institution/tour you selected AND WHY.

Must attempt paying attention to grammar, spelling, and complete sentences/thoughts.

Must be at least ONE-HALF PAGE.
