Be sure to read each section carefully. There is a little quiz in order to get the "key of knowledge" for the future page. I admit I did have to go back once to get some information that my old mind did not comprehend the first time. The quiz is short but well worth it to see the Future page. I really liked this page too. Look for the Rose With A Soul. The last graphic here is perfect for this site so be sure to go through them and have a peek.I can certainly see why it won first place in the Microsoft Challenge.
As you follow the links you will find some of Steve Feld's credentials. I think these are rather impressive. I also noted that these students gave up a day of their vacation to work on this project as a team. Again I have to say, what an impressive group of people.
I noticed at both sites there are so many activities that I simply cannot fit all of them into one article. There is so much information and interesting things to do. These pages are absolutely perfect for families wanting to introduce their youngest to art, kids who need information on projects from Art to Science, college students who need specific information and this site is also perfect for the home schooling family as well.
I would like to share what Steve Feld wrote to me regarding both sites because I could not put it into better words. Mr. Feld writes "families can do the following at both sites: Share together an exploration of Art History, evaluate from multigenerational perspectives key theories, experience with each family member, taking away information and excitement on his/her own maturation level, morfing, interactive quizzes, rewards; win the key of knowledge, contribute to a narrative reflective guestbook, respond to other comments, etc." Well said Mr. Feld! He is absolutely correct. I have tried to write this review to say the exact same thing and found that it simply could not be put into better terms. Both sites have so much to offer and so many activity possibilities that they cannot all be listed and discussed individually in one article.
I would also like to note that both of these sites have been selected and recommended by several family friendly organizations. Those are: GetNetWise (Seal of Approval), SafeSurf, OPLIN OH! Kids and Weekly Reader. (I love Weekly Reader!)
