But, while adjacent, museums differ from formal classrooms in numerous ways. Think of the classes where you learned the most. Those feelings developed over hours of classroom time with a human.

Instead of classrooms or mission statements, first time visitors enter 826 Valencia through the storefront Pirate Supply Store. I rarely do it while visiting museums, either, partially because the educational services museums offer (class programs, outreach, etc.) are not as clearly exhibited to me the visitor as they were at 826.

” You know, you could say something like in one sentence, “You are helping kids go from bullied, and disconnected, and really struggling in the classroom to becoming a leader in their community amongst their peers and applying for college.” Excuse me for the violent image.

Last week, I had my first serious experience with useful back channels at a conference ( WebWise ), and it taught me some lessons about how back channels might be used effectively as a learning tool in museums and other experiential venues (like conferences and classrooms).

Outreach Let’s say you run your museum's education department, and you have two vans that go out to schools to do in-classroom programs exposing students to museum content. The museum has a database of 300+ plants, and they wanted to "do something" with the related plant images. Let's look at these one by one.
