' Ancient
Civilizations' is a unique tool for the study of world history. A
series of culture-based websites look in depth at the achievements
of some of the most remarkable world civilizations. The Ancient
Civilizations site itself focuses on important cross-cultural themes
of human development, showing how societies have interacted and
influenced one another.
The sites are carefully designed to
give maximum learning value to pupils and their teachers studying
History at upper primary KS2 and secondary KS3 level. They use a
variety of learning styles, supported by interactive multimedia
resources, historical reconstructions and 3D animations.
The first two
sites in the series, launched in 1999 and 2001, with over 5 million
visitors annually, have established the British Museum at the
forefront of e-learning provision for schools. We hope Ancient
Civilizations will encourage our world-wide educational audience to
use the Museum's unparalleled collection to learn about their world
in a new way. |
