ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
We are currently working on a traveling exhibition that we plan to
travel to multiple countries around the world.
I was wondering if you have traveling exhibitions that tour
internationally and how you deal with language in exhibit elements. Is
it best to make interactives and text panels bilingual or is it safe to
create an exhibit only in English? If we make them bilingual, what two
languages are best to use?
I have heard that some places deal with this issue by creating multiple
versions of a single exhibit to send to different regions of the world.
However, this may not be possible for us. Any suggestions??
Thanks,
Charity
