Museum Box Review

·      Museum Box = http://museumbox.e2bn.org/

"Welcome to Museum Box, This site provides the tools for you to build up an argument or description of an event, person or historical period by placing items in a virtual box. What items, for example, would you put in a box to describe your life; the life of a Victorian Servant or Roman soldier; or to show that slavery was wrong and unnecessary? You can display anything from a text file to a movie. You can also view and comment on the museum boxes submitted by others."
My take: This is an interesting site that allows a unique perspective and challenge for students. This site allows the opportunity to engage students in more abstract thinking - trying to find objects that represent their point of view or ideas. I think this site has great potential and I look forward to including it as an option during assessments for several units this year. I highly recommend this site -
