Museum Box: Create a Virtual Shadow Box

Museum Box is a Web 2.o site for educators that was inspired by Thomas Clarkson an Abolitionist during the 1800's who traveled over 30,000 miles with his box filled with artifacts from the trans-Atlantic slave trade.

Students and teachers can make their own boxes to display contents of topics of their choice. If you do not want to create your own box you can browse hundreds of boxes that have already been saved.

Text, pictures, audio and video files can be uploaded.

Go see some that students have already created... http://museumbox.e2bn.org/gallery/
