10 Web Resources For Digital Field Trips To Museums - Edudemic

10 Web Resources For Digital Field Trips To Museums - Edudemic | Eclectic Technology | Scoop.it
This week’s Learnist feature highlights digital field trips, travel writer Tyler Wilcox and others, as they take us to some of the best museums in the world.
Beth Dichter's insight:

With field trips costing money that is often difficult to come by finding a resource that provides you with virtual field trips is a great resource! So let your students know they will be climbing on a virtual bus and possibly going across the country (or to a completely different country) to learn. Museums discussed in this post include:

* The World's Most Amazing Museums

* The World's Best Natural History Museums

* The Best Children's Museums

And more. Take the time to click through and see if there is a journey for you and your students.
