The Museums and the Web 2000 program opened with
a plenary session. On Monday,
three concurrent tracks featured in-house impacts of the web, e-commerce
and museum-school collaboration. On Tuesday,
birds-of-a-feather continental breakfast meetings were followed by tracks
on evaluation and design. On Wednesday
two demonstration sessions, with dozens of demonstrations each, ran concurrently
with mini-workshops on tools and techniques and a "Crit Room"
where web designers subject their work to peer review. All these sessions
were structured to allow attendees to participate. A closing plenary wrapped
the meeting.
Papers presented at MW2000 were published in conference
Proceedings distributed to all attendees at registration, thanks
to our sponsor, bigchalk.com.
