Hi Everyone,
Welcome to the blog for the Museum Experience class. This class was conceived to be a travel class where you actually visit museums and engage with artwork in person, rather than mediated by print or digital representation. The difference is huge.
The idea is that you will plan a trip to 5 museums and write 4 papers and create 1 photo essay with captions. Details about how to go about this is detailed in the syllabus linked from the list in the upper right side.
Blogging is easy. If you have ever made a post to Facebook, you already know how to blog. Take a look at the short video I made, also in the link list. While there, check out the time line/due dates link.
The syllabus has many links to help you in place of a textbook. Take a look at some of the past blogs and see what others have done in the past.
I will review the work every Monday morning and leave comments here. The first week is about getting up and running. Post a short Bio to the blog.. a photo is nice too... Plan you trips and post where they will be. Read the syllabus to see the Museums that are possible. Begin your visits... Join the blog.
Email me with any questions! jnevins@albertus.edu. Above all, I want you to have fun with this. Treat it like a summer vacation... engage with the work (one piece, really).
