Web Tool of the Day: Museum Box

“If you could put a number of items into a box that described your life, what would you include?”

Museum box makes this happen. Museum Box is a very interesting and stimulating web application which provides virtual boxes for you and on-line tools (sound, files, pictures…etc.) for building up and showcasing your ideas, or describing a person or an event or a problem by placing items in the virtual boxes.

MUSEUM BOX

You can take a look at some examples provided on the site before experimenting.

For instance you will find a museum box about photography here:

Teaching Suggestions

For the tech-savvy student profile: Let’s say that you focused on environment in your course materials and/or asked students to do an on-line search. Then you can ask the students to present their findings about environmental problems and suggested solutions by placing these into their museum boxes. For beginners in educational technology: You can also build a museum box with your students; you can be in charge of bringing realia and artifacts together but students can be in charge of finding what to display in the museum boxes.

Museum box also provides some guidance for the teachers.

You can also find tutorials on Youtube:

 

I hope that you enjoy it. Please let me know what you think…
