Abstract

Through the presentation of six supplemental museum websites, this paper will describe the varying types of interactive supplemental museum websites and how they could be used in the classroom to create learner-centered environments and at the same time establish early relationships between students and museums. Because these sites are so unique and diverse in the ways in which they present information and because they present museum exhibits in novel ways, they are excellent tools for classroom use and provide for teachers with opportunities to create lessons in which students are able to explore topics through the context of museum exhibits and museum concepts.
