A virtual museum educator will follow up to request a phone call, a virtual meeting, or an email for more information. Teachers should respond promptly to the email. Students and teachers will engage with virtual museum educators for the duration of the virtual field trip. To encourage engagement, we require that cameras be turned on. We require that teachers call on students to respond to questions and direct students to walk over to the microphone to share their answers. Teachers may need to repeat or paraphrase student responses for the virtual museum educators.
