In this article some thoughts on the use of digitised artifacts for teaching visual analysis in Classical art are presented. In order to employ digital images as effective teaching tools it is important to be able to describe your expectations for the media in relation to the learners’ task; to consider how to use the type of presentation (e.g. still photographs or virtual reality) to best advantage; and to identify critical insights students may either obtain (or have diminished) as a result of the media presented to them.

At the same time it must be remembered that last summer was not an out‐door one.
