  • About Our Merger with Khan Academy (October 2011)We are excited to announce that Smarthistory is now part of the Khan Academy. For the past year, we’ve been so impressed by what Sal and his team have accomplished. Our missions are perfectly aligned—we are all working toward a “free world-class education to anyone anywhere.”
  • So, it finally occurred to us, why not use the personal voice that we use when we teach online, along with the multimedia we had already created for our blog and for our courses, to create a more engaging "web-book" that could be used in conjunction with art history survey courses.

  • A Short History of SmarthistorySmarthistory.org is a free, not-for-profit, multi-media web-book designed as a dynamic enhancement (or even substitute) for the traditional art history textbook. Dr. Beth Harris and Dr. Steven Zucker began smARThistory in 2005 by creating a blog featuring free audio guides in the form of podcasts for use in The Museum of Modern Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art

    Taking our assignment and splicing off into a slightly different area, Smarthistory combined with Khan Academy to expand the availability of OER regarding Art History.

    Saw this video in another class and think it applies here! It talks about the same question as mentioned in the slideshare: How do we prepare students for an economy we can't predict, using outdated tools that no long are relevant? Plus the artist in me just loves the "live action" animation of the drawing of the main points. Enjoy!

    Hey! I finally got it to work! This website is great for finding different iPad apps for different subject areas. Obviously, as a future art teacher, I picked Art, but there are plenty for reading, english, math, and science as well.
