Dear Izzy,
I am keen to get some online learning resources up and running as soon as possible. I would like to use My Learning to do this but I think there is a bit of a process to go through isn't there which means it won't be quick?
Also the museum is volunteer led and we have closed to the public for at least 3 months and we won't have any income for that period.
I am wondering if it would work or whether I would be better of using MS teams or Google Education if I can get myself set up.
How did your Maker Revolution project go? I am just working on the final bits.
Al the best,

Hi Mia
Really interesting and helpful. Do you know if anyone has produced classroom resources for teachers on using digital collections / portals like these to support remote teaching etc.
Best

Dear MCGers,
As many school and university classes are switching to some form of remote / online / distance learning (and people generally might be looking for entertainment or a culture fix), I've thrown together a quick list of online portals to digitised collections, 'tours', 'exhibitions', etc: http://www.openobjects.org.uk/2020/03/stuck-at-home-view-cultural-heritage-collections-online/
I've also created a Custom Search Engine in Google that's looking at https://search.creativecommons.org, https://sketchfab.com, https://www.wikipedia.org, https://eap.bl.uk, https://trove.nla.gov.au, https://dp.la, https://artuk.org, https://artsandculture.google.com, https://www.europeana.eu/portal/en, https://www.khanacademy.org/humanities. (I seem to be limited to ten entries, so I've had to be ruthless.)
I've focused on portals (with an exception to celebrate the Smithsonian's recent Open Access launch) because it's easier for people to search a few places than look through individual sites. As a side note, the richness of content available shows the value of all those past decades of digitisation...
However, I'm conscious that I'm missing portals for Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, South America, etc, except for content available via sites with an international focus such as the British Library's Endangered Archives Programme. Does anyone have suggestions to fill those gaps?
I'm also missing content produced on social media, whether that's 'live' tours, 'stories' or old-fashioned tweets and Instagram images. Is anyone collecting a list of those?
Cheers,
Mia
