Virtual Museum

This virtual museum's goal is to bring out the history of San Francisco into the light. The website uses text, graphics, and sounds to provide visitors with a fun and interesting experience. There are several ways to navigate through the site. You can choose from a major online exhibit, browse by subject, year, or biographies. There are a multitude of links that will lead anywhere from an old newspaper clipping to other websites. There is also a shop museum in case visitors would like to make a purchase. It's a great way for people to go to the museum from the comfort of their own home. They can learn all about San Francisco at their own pace. It seems like a very good website for students to use and to learn the meaning of primary and secondary sources. They can explore a topic and learn from first account statements what happened.
