This project created an online exhibition to house Object in focus exhibits created by fellows of the British Museum’s International Training Programme (ITP). We constructed a prototype using design elements from exemplary online exhibitions and feedback from a survey sent to ITP fellows. We improved this prototype using an iterative design process and made a handbook guide for ITP staff and fellows to update the online exhibition. Our final product is an engaging, professional, and updatable online exhibition that permanently showcases the curation skills of ITP fellows.
