"PROMISING PRACTICES" FOR USING NETWORKED ARTS RESOURCES FOR K-12 TEACHING
The Arts: On-Site and On-Line
<http://www.bampfa.berkeley.edu/iu/>
A year-long study of how arts organizations can best use digitally
networked resources to engage K-12 students in learning and experiencing
the arts has produced a set of "promising practices" as part of its on-line
final report.
Members of the project, "Arts: On-Site and On-Line," devised seven broad
categories as criteria for evaluating on-line and electronic educational
materials. Within these categories, the group made recommendations it felt
characterized the most promising practices. The seven categories are:
1.Quality of content and its interpretive presentation
2.Diversity of Information
3.Graphic Design
4.Applicability for Teaching
5.Links and Related Resources
6.Engaging and Stimulating
7.Enhancing the Real Experience.
The report suggests that the outline of recommendations within these
categories could be used by museums developing educational resources
on-line, by teachers developing collaborative projects with arts
organizations, as a framework for planning and as a list of recommended
practices.
The web site contains a detailed account of the project, a collaboration
between the Berkeley Art Museum/Pacific Film Archive, Cal Performances, and
K-12 teachers from several schools in the San Francisco Bay Area under the
umbrella of UC Berkeley's Interactive University Project.

>This website is the product of a year-long collaborative project between

>teachers from several schools in the San Francisco Bay Area under the

>"How can site-based arts organizations - museums and performing arts
>presenters - best employ new technologies and the Internet to engage K-12
>students in learning and experiencing the Arts?"
>
>This comprehensive web site contains a full project description, all
>meeting minutes, links to case studies, and a list of suggested "promising
>practices" for using the Internet to foster improved education and
>collaboration between arts organizations and schools. The information and
>recommendations contained here may be useful for: K-12 teachers when
>looking for educational resources on the Internet; museums and arts
>organizations when creating educational electronic resources; performing
>arts institutions, museums, and K-12 schools when planning collaborative
>educational projects that will make use of technology and the Internet; and
>the larger community of individuals and organizations wishing to make
>effective use of electronic educational materials.
