Greetings Angelina!

 

Sounds like interesting research.  How about categorizing based on goal,
technology, timeframe, and/or audience:

 

*	cognition/perception versus emotion/sensation?
*	mechanical versus electronic (computers)?
*	more passive (minimal physical activity, touch-screen computer)
versus more active (physical exertion, movable parts)?
*	short-term versus long-term?
*	toddlers (under 5), children (6-12), teens (13-17) or
adults/seniors (over 18)?

 

I'm sure others can propose additional criteria . . .

 

Best wishes, sincerely,

Jay

Hello all,

I am doing a research on possible use of Interactivity in museums. I
have been trying to find a universal categorization of interactives but
unfortunately with no luck. Apart from computer related or not, which
are the most appropriate aspects to look for, in order to do such a
categorization? 

 

Any suggestions or guidance would be very much appreciated. 

Thank you in advance.
