ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
Leticia, I did an informal study at the Boston Museum of Science many
years ago and found that it is hard to get visitors to watch a video
for more than 30 seconds unless (1) the experience is interactive or
(2) they can sit down. I watched a couple of hundred visitors at six
different exhibits, and saw almost no one watch for as much as a full
minute, even although the videos were typically much longer than that.
