  •  
    Museums are incorporating apps for exhibit info and wayfinding-- BUT, aren't "museums made for getting lost?" Discussion of limitations.

How Tech Is Changing the Museum Experience - 3 views

  • “Obviously, once a visitor can access almost any ‘facts’ on the device they carry in their pocket, the idea that a museum should be about ‘facts’ is almost made redundant. This opens up a whole lot of possibilities for making museum exhibitions far more immersive and experiential, leaving the ‘fact’ layer for mobile and online delivery either during or before and after the gallery visit.”

ARTLAB+ - 2 views

  •  
    ARTLAB+ is a digital media studio that gives local teens the opportunity to become integral members of a design team. They create new visitor experiences at the Hirshhorn, taking their inspiration from its permanent collection and temporary exhibitions. ARTLAB+ designers hone crucial twenty-first century skills as they make videos, animations, wikis, games, podcasts, and more. By the end of every project session, the design team has created a unique product that enriches the museum experiences of other visitors and showcases each teen's creative growth. After-school, weekend, and weeklong ARTLAB+ workshops are held year-round to accommodate a wide variety of schedules. We welcome all teens, regardless of experience. Looks like a great way to help introduce twenty-first century skills- BB

    This is really cool- combining mobile, situated learning in the real world, with creative group projects, and letting kids direct their own active, learning 'flow'.. Can this scale up to schools (or after-school programs), without access to museum artifacts and mobile devices?
