The Museum Education Roundtable in collaboration with the Education
Committee (EdCom) and the Committee on Audience Research and Evaluation
(CARE) of the American Association of Museums is still accepting
applications for the 2005 EdCom/MER/CARE Marketplace of Ideas held at
the 2005 AAM Annual Meeting.
Monday, May 2, 2005, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m., Indiana Convention
Center, Indianapolis, IN.
"Museums at the Crossroads: Current Trends in Museum Education and
Visitor Studies."
This marketplace will feature the related areas of museum education,
evaluation, and audience research, specifically: learning in museum
environments, programming dealing with community or contemporary issues,
programming beyond the walls of the museum, innovative museum/community
partnerships, using technology to reach new audiences, museum exhibition
and program evaluation projects, and audience market research. Delegates
will have the opportunity to talk one-on-one with museum educators,
evaluators, and audience researchers to learn about the research
questions, evaluation methods, and educational approaches that can help
exhibitions and programs better meet visitor and institutional needs.
Each sponsoring organization will feature a "Meet the Board" table where
participants can meet and talk with Board members.
Sponsored by the AAM Committees on Education (EdCom) and Audience
Research and Evaluation (CARE), and the Museum Education Roundtable
