Administrators of museums and other informal-learning centers often
need to demonstrate, in some tangible way, the effectiveness of
their institutions as teaching tools. Practical Evaluation Guide
discusses specific methods for analyzing audience learning and
behavior in museums, zoos, botanic gardens, nature centers, camps,
and youth programs. Evaluation is essential because it allows you
to answer critical questions like: *How can one measure the impacts
of educational experiences in a museum, zoo, or aquarium? *Are
digital technologies more effective than traditional exhibits for
enhancing visitor interest and understanding? *How does one measure
learning in these informal environments where visitors themselves
decide what they will experience? *Since we know many visitors come
to informal institutions for social interaction and play, how does
one access these social impacts? The Practical Evaluation Guide is
an all-in-one resource to guide professionals working in museums
and other informal educational institutions. This new edition
includes updates throughout and features a brand-new chapter on
evaluating digital interactive exhibits. The section on
observational tools includes a new section on using video
recordings and the section on interviews includes recent studies
from countries outside the U.S. Practical Evaluation Guide serves
as a basic, easy-to-follow guide for museum professionals and
students who want to understand the effects of such public
institutions on the people who visit them.
