>Electronic Outreach: Museum Programming on the Web
>
>The Web provides an exciting dimension in which museums are interacting
with new audiences and presenting engaging programs unencumbered by
physical space and time. While the development of online programs builds on
many of the core principles of more conventional exhibitions and public
programming, it also requires an understanding of online media, their
potential and limitations, and their implications for information sharing,
interpretation and interactions.
>This course draws on contemporary research and emerging practice in online
programming, and encourages you to consider creative ways to program on the
Web as you develop your ability to:
> * understand the Web as an educational medium
> * appreciate the potential of a range of Web media tools including
digital video and QuickTime VR, along with technical considerations
relating to bandwidth, software, and hardware
> * define ways in which your museum can incorporate Web-based programming
within its educational mission
> * identify and serve existing and potential on-line audiences including
peoples of varied age, background, learning styles, and special needs
> * develop engaging content
> * move beyond posting information to more interactive teaching and
learning strategies that enable visitors to connect with objects and
collections, create meaning, contribute content, and share experience
> * recognize effective approaches to Web site architecture, copy, design,
typography, colour, multi-media tools, and navigation
> * develop and manage dynamic team-based and collaborative approaches
> * plan, market, implement, and evaluate on-line programs
