- Art History on the Web
- The Department of the History of Art of the
University of Pennsylvania has begun
a vigorous effort to use the latest communications technology in the
teaching of art history. With the increasing speed of image and text
delivery and the growing number of remote sites, HA101 students
now have access to a powerful research and review tool. If you are currently unfamiliar with the capabilities and promise of the
Internet, a brief tour of several University web sites might stand in for
the wealth of information being continually downloaded to servers around
the world that will help to ease the exchange of images and ideas and foster
the study of art history. the following web sites (shown with their Uniform
Resource Locators or URLs) provide an introduction to the novice
surfer and offer a glimpse at the telecommunications future beckoning art historians.
The History of Art Web Sites are maintained by Faculty and Staff and
recieve continual updates during the course of the semester.
Changes in syllabi, lecture material, and assignments -- as well as
the schedules for museum visits -- can now be accessed by students
as they are made and entered.
Student Feedback
- The Department of the History of Art is interested in developing an
ongoing discussion between the students, educators and programmers
involved in the success of the electronic elements of History of Art 101.
You have an opportunity and a responsibility to provide cogent resoponses
to the material and methodology presented in this new format. At times,
the Electronic Sections may inspire you to record your observations and gut
feelings for posterity. Any thoughts about this introductory session,
