Create your own teaching museum. ArtSite starts you off with 200 Museum pages organized in 12 collections. Each with an image, description, and a few related project suggestions. Add an unlimited number of pages organized in any number of collections. Delete or change the included pages to match your teaching style. (None of the pre-loaded pages include any nudity.)
Download free images and descriptions from museum websites or scan print media to build your Museum pages. Add project suggestions to inspire students.
Students can contribute an unlimited number of Gallery pages by searching the ArtSite Museum and simply writing about a work of art, or they can upload a new image and write a description.
The ArtBlog gives students the opportunity to post comments to form an exchange of ideas. Teachers approve all comments before they are posted and can turn the blog on or off for each class. Search the Gallery by collection, class, and student.
The Portfolio gives students the opportunity to display their studio art and writing. Students can upload thier own art images or teachers can upload images for them. At the end of each year, teachers can save the best Portfolio pages to share with new students. The Portfolio is searchable by academic year, class, and student.
