According to Christine Castle:

> I'm updating an orientation course on guiding tours in 'galleries,
> museums and parks' which I do for the School of Continuing Studies at the
> University of Toronto. It's a 10-evening course intended for those interested
> in doing this on a volunteer basis but who have had little or no experience.
>
> While the course includes several field trips, meetings with
> docents/guides, and guest 'lectures', this year I would like to attempt
> more of a general case study approach. I'm familiar with the texts on the
> subject but I believe stories may better help people 'step into the
> shoes' of the museum educator.
>
> I'd be happy to do a summary of what I compile if anyone's interested.
