Description:
The nearly 125 years of research, collections, exhibit and educational resources of the Milwaukee Public Museum are not limited to the physical constructs of the building itself. Through interactive videoconferencing, a resource-laden website and well-trained professional education staff, the Milwaukee Public Museum can come right to your classroom. Explore natural and cultural history in an exciting videoconference format with the Passport Distance Learning Series. Mix live interaction between students and Museum educators with a detailed, content-rich curriculum that can't be found in textbooks. Students can see artifacts and collections unavailable to the public and ask questions during real-time learning sessions. Point-to-Point programs are available on-demand with a minimum of two weeks notice for scheduling.
