Produktbeschreibung

During the course of an interactive museum tour an educator will be able to elicit a range of responses, conversation, and new discoveries that engage the broadest spectrum of museum learners.

To engage the entire group in the interpretive process, museum educators frequently employ gallery activities to enlist other sensory components and learning styles to more fully experience the art.
