Not only teachers but the general public as well. I have been looking
for any studies, to no avail about  how the public uses the websites
we create.

Has anyone done studies that suggest how visitors to museum use the
websites for museums? As with teachers if we knew how and why they
used our websites we might be able to design websites that serve
their needs better.
