Visits to museums have long been an important aspect of the
education of young people and in recent years it has been
increasingly recognised that education is core to the purpose of
the museum. Not only do they introduce students to the many and
varied forms of our material culture, they also introduce them to
social, historical and scientific encounters that are difficult to
find elsewhere. The second edition of this popular book takes
account of the ongoing changes in both museums and education to
provide a comprehensive introduction for student teachers,
practising teachers and other educators to all that is required to
make good educational use of museums. It explores what a museum is,
their value in primary and secondary education and why they require
special teaching skills. It then goes on to look at the
practicalities of planning, preparing and conducting a visit,
including risk assessment. Next, it introduces the basic skills
involved in working with the resources that are required to make
the best educational use of museums, including online and digital
resources. Finally, the author considers ways of following-up work
done outside the classroom, including some of the longer term
strategies that teachers should consider.
