Education does not exist within the 4 walls of a classroom, or the brick and mortar buildings of a school. What if teachers could take students on field trips to some of the greatest museums in the world without having to worry about travel and finances? Starting today, you'll be able to do just that.
Google is partnering with the world's greatest museums to help them build mobile apps that take advantage of everything Google offers such as Street View and YouTube. This means exhibits within these museums are available to anyone with a smart phone. Imagine the possibilities of how you can share the material with students. Students can go on virtual tours with the "indoor" 360 degree Street View and view individual exhibits that also include audio guides. These can be shared through their Gmail and Drive.
Click HERE to download the first app and visit the Museum of Arts et Métiers in Paris and leave a comment to share how you will be using this tool with your students.
