Google Arts and Culture with Google Expeditions

I was very sad when the Google Expeditions app was no longer available. I utilized the app with classes to virtually visit different countries, colleges and historical places.

Good news! Many (not all) expeditions can now be found in Google Arts and Culture.  Google Arts and Culture is a website and app with virtual tours of art museums around the world, artist features and much more!

The site includes virtual fields trips that students can access through a mobile device or a laptop. Students do not need to log into the site to access. Click here to view information about virtual fields trip in Google Arts and Culture.
