I could provide sample images and you could download the free version of the Object2VR software and try it out – I could talk you […]

I am also very interested in this, but I know very little – I want to learn! Thanks for the links you included. I wish I had known about the Marcia Zeng […]

I personally don’t like to take photos at museums, but I sometimes wish afterwards that I had done so. A couple of years ago I was writing about the temporary First Ladies exhibit at the […]

Basically, I have an ongoing concern […]

I’m also exploring Omeka and seeing a great potential for use in education. I started looking at Omeka thinking it would simplify some of the types of projects I have students doing already […]

It definitely relates to my interest in “quick and dirty” tools for educators to represent teaching objects with specific […]

I think they’re a […]

As is true of most education, I think there’s something to be said for learning how to learn – then being able to go off on your own and teach yourself whatever you need at […]
