Korean+History+Virtual+Museum


 * Task**: The final project for this semester is to design a virtual museum celebrating Korean history. To do this, you will work with two partners to create a virtual museum that contains exhibits on the Korean dynasty’s main topics: 1-foundation, 2-government, 3-myths and legends, 4-daily life, 5-territory, 6-conflicts, 7-end of the dynasty, and 8-time line.

The exhibits, which you will design in a Keynote virtual museum template, must include a variety of multimedia- web links, images of art and artifacts, QuickTime Comic, maps, and iMovie video- to capture the essence and importance of the topic. You will use ABC-CLIO and World Book Encyclopedia, in addition to other resources of your choice to conduct additional research.

1. Your virtual museum will focus on the key points of one of Korea’s dynasties. The museum must be made up of five exhibits which will be shown in five rooms. Each room will have one of the following themes (i.e. one theme in each room):
 * Directions:**
 * Theme 1: In the Beginning - The founding of the dynasty with maps to illustrate its size
 * Theme 2: Government - The leaders, hierarchy, and foreign relations
 * Theme 3: Myths and legends
 * Theme 4: Daily Life - Aspects of daily life such as food, culture, language, homes, clothing, etc.
 * Theme 5: Conflicts - events that led to the end of the dynasty

2. Your museum must be arranged in a logical and understandable way. Each room in your museum must have visuals and information related to the theme of the room.
 * Each room will have four or five images (exhibits) related to the theme of the room
 * Each image will include a 60-80 word description of an aspect of the dynasty related to theme of the room
 * The entrance of your museum also has exhibits that must show additional information about your dynasty that is not shown in any of the rooms

3. Your museum will also have some multimedia activities for your visitors.
 * One room must have a web link exhibit to a game you will create in [|classtools.net]. The game must be related to the theme of the room.
 * Make sure to password protect your game
 * You can give your visitors a choice of a game or choose one for them to play
 * Your exhibit should have a screen grab of the game as well as the link to the game
 * You must show a 60-80 word description about the topic in the game exhibit

 * Another room must include a ComicLife comic exhibit that is related to the theme of the room. These are the requirements for the comic:
 * Length one to two pages
 * The comic must be converted to a Quicktime movie
 * You must show a 60-80 word description about the topic in the exhibit

 * Another room must have an original iMovie video exhibit. This video must be related to the theme of the room. These are the requirements for the video:
 * Length must be 45 seconds to 75 seconds
 * Your visitors should see you and your partners in the video for at least 15 seconds
 * Your video must include clear and understandable narration about the topic of the exhibit as well as images
 * You do not need a description about the topic of the exhibit because you will narrate the information

4. You must cite all your sources for images and information. In each exhibit there is a space for a citation. All other citations for images or information must go on the [|curators'] page.
