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 trying to position an interactive computer exhibit within our  
evolution exhibition and I wonder if anyone has any information that  
suggests optimal or general placement of this kind of exhibit?

Do they need to be off to the side out of the mainstream of the  
exhibit where they can be concentrated on or can they be smack in the  
middle of the exhibit with no or little effect on the time visitors  
spend at the computer? Yes, I guess the type of interaction is  
relevant but I am just looking for some guidance.

Data or anecdotal observations?
