I'm doing a research project on teachers who use museums as
educational resources (not just for field trips, but also as research
facilities, artifact-based lessons, collaborative units, etc.). Can
anyone recommend any sources (written, websistes, or people to talk
to!) on what sorts of information teachers look for when planning
museum-based projects (and how they go about looking)? I hope to
develop a user study and and a bibliography - and I'm happy to share
results of the project with anyone who is interested.
