Subject: AAM 2001 session idea: broken exhibits
As part of a much larger gallery experience evaluation project, The Tech
Museum of Innovation recently completed some research on visitor
perceptions related to broken exhibits.
This has long been a topic of conversation among science centers.
However, I know that more museums of different types are using
technology in their exhibits.
- Would this subject be of interest to museums beyond the science center
community?
- Have other museums have studied visitor perceptions of broken
exhibits? (More than just visitor feedback comments or calculating
"uptime.")
- Have you changed how you deal with broken exhibits, and do you have
evidence that it makes a difference? (For the times when it is
impossible to remove the exhibit from the floor or for brief outages.)
- Do you know of museums that deal with broken exhibits in a
particularly effective way?
Please let me know if you are interested or have suggestions related to
this subject. Thank you.
