ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
I have posted a very rough video on youtube to give you an idea of
what the exhibit looks like and what it does. Here is the link:

Again, I am looking for references to studies done on the subject of
visitor response to computer screens. And any ideas/feedback would
be much appreciated.
Jeff Courtman: Apologies for my atrocious grammar before. The
screen already says "Touch the button" and "Touch here". I meant to
say "I am wondering what we can do to the "resting" screen beyond
saying "Touch to begin" to draw people in." Sorry for the
misunderstanding.
Thanks,
Anna
