“Students tell us that Smarthistory does a better job than the textbook because it uses multimedia, and because it’s both experiential and conversational. They also appreciate that it’s on the web, and that it’s free. Teachers appreciate that Smarthistory uses a creative commons license so that they are free to use this content without asking permission. We also make nearly 2,000 high resolution photographs of key works of art available on Flickr with a creative commons license“
