Robert Guralnick wrote about virtual exhibitions that "if it is going to work, it had better be interactive and educational." What does it mean to be "educational"? What makes one experience educational and another not? Humans learn from all of their experiences, regardless of whether what they learn is useful or good (by our middle class North American standards). So who decides, and how, which are educational? It's not meant to be an offensive question; its just something I've been thinking about lately.
