I am doing a research project about labels in interactive science
centers/museums.

What do you think?

Should they be merely informative (instructions regarding how the
hands-on works)?
Should they include explanations on the scientific principle?
Should they include historical and social context?
Should they be a mixture of the above three?
Should there be ANY labels at all? (pros and cons)

Cheers,

Marta.
