The Renaissance “Virtual” Museum Goal: Create a virtual museum made of exhibits featuring the works of key artistic, architectural and literary figures the “Golden Age” of the Renaissance (13501650). Objectives: Utilize and customize technologies to present period pieces of artwork, architecture and literature dated from 1350-1650. Design a museum through which students will travel and be able to learn on their own the past and contemporary meaning of significant cultural accomplishments. Explain the cultural legacies of the important people of the Renaissance. Analyze the importance of the artwork in terms of its technical and cultural advancements. Analyze the importance of the architecture in terms of its design, engineering and technological advancements. Analyze the importance of the literature in terms of its cultural, social, political and dramatic expression. Activity: Your team will collaborate to choose 10 works of art, architecture and literature created by the artists and writers from the given list and to create a multi-media “self-learning tour” depicting and explaining the significance of the artists and their works. Your fellow students will use an evaluation report to score and comment on the effectiveness and will submit to teacher.
