Artists Web Quest:
 

You've just been hired as the new writer and critic for an art magazine called Art in America. Your first assignment is to learn about a famous modern painter for your article and to choose a painting by that artist to critique. This interdisciplinary WebQuest requires students to use library research skills to obtain information about artists.

Credits Diane Wheeler (Koda/Art) and MaryJo Osinski (MS Humanities Librarian)

Art Exhibit Web Quest:
 

Imagine you work for the Albany Institute for History and Art. A recent expansion allows for additional exhibits. You and your team must research and decide which artist to display and then create a scale drawing of the exhibit space. This WebQuest is not entirely complete, but provides ideas and a good start for interested teachers.
