Let's Make a Field Trip!
In this activity, you will have students create an online field trip for the class. They must create a written guide and focus for the field trip.

You may use resources provided for Activities 1-3, or select sites of your own.

Things to Consider as you Plan:

• How do I want my students work--individually, in partners, or small group?
  Does the physical set-up of your classroom or computer lab lend itself to one of these more efficiently? What is the personality of your class?
  
  
• How will the content be divided?
  How expensive is each of the webmuseums you have chosen? Will you have students select a museum, and create a general field trip that covers the major works they find online? Will you choose specific movements on which they should focus for each museum?
  
  
• How do I want students to demonstrate understanding
  of the artist's work and the movement?
  How will the content be divided among the members of the class/groups? How many examples of an artist's should they find? What is the final product--cut and paste images into a Word document and convert to a pdf for presentation, or create bookmarks that they can reference during their presentation? Will students provide an overview of the museum and the significant works in their collections?
  
  
• Will the students provide a written guide for the class as they go through the tour??
  Will there be open-ended questions for the class to answer? Will the class be able to critique each field trip?
  
  

Be sure students cite their sources for their presentations. See EasyBib for a free MLA composer, or How to Write A Bibliography for tips.

After considering the above items and checking out the Resources in the module, plan your lesson, and teach it to your students.
