"Wish not so much to live long as to live well."
-Benjamin Franklin, Poor Richard’s Almanack, 1738

In honor of Ben Franklin's 300th birthday a group of Philadelphia middle school students visited two museums--the Tercentenary and the Rosenbach. Afterwards the students participated in a 3 week mini course and developed an online exhibition:

Ben, the Good the Bad and the Ugly

Check out the Narrated Exhibit and the Audio Skits (the last one on gout is hilarious!).

Now that's technology put to good use in the classroom!
