You are invited to attend a Professional Development Seminar presented by the Institute for Learning Innovation on September 20, 2001 at the Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts, 801 Chase Street, Annapolis, Maryland. Seminars are offered at no charge and are held from 4:30 - 5:30 followed by a wine and cheese reception. The topic of this seminar will be: "Do free-choice learning institutions change visitors' attitudes and behavior? How? and How do we know?" Dr. Leslie M. Adelman and Dr. Marianna Adams, Senior Associates, Institute for Learning Innovation, will discuss a model for behavioral change which provides a framework for understanding and investigating changes in visitors' attitudes and behaviors. They will highlight several recent longitudinal studies, conducted in a variety of free-choice settings, that provide evidence of change, with focus on assessing the nature and magnitude of change, as well as the implications for program/exhibition development.
