April 20, 2011

What's up with adults and seniors in your science centre or museum?

Guided tours, field trips, demonstrations, workshops, performing arts
events, symposia, film series, lectures, teacher workshops, collaborative
programs, community services and outreach, Elderhostel, reminiscence work,
certificate programs, book groups ... Are you doing any research or
evaluation on any of these or other areas related to adults and elders in
science centres, museums, galleries, parks, zoos, aquaria, and other sites
of informal learning?

If so, MUSEUM EDUCATION MONITOR (MEM), the monthly e-newsletter, would like
to list your work in our upcoming April 2011 Adult Theme issue. As
always, we welcome listings by museum workers, consultants, faculty, and
students at all levels of study.

To share research or evaluation with others around the world, please send an
e-mail to [log in to unmask] that includes:

- name of project
- research question(s) [no more than 50 words, please]
- how the data will be presented
- principal researcher(s)/ evaluator(s)
- site(s) where research is being conducted
- time span
- contact information
- key words/labels to describe the project [no more than 4 or 5, please].

All listings are free of charge and displayed in their language of
origin. Deadline for the April Adult Theme Issue is Friday April 22.

To review work listed in past MEM issues, please visit the MEM blog, "FORUM:
Research and Resources in Museum Education," at http://forum.mccastle.com/

For more information about this call or to discuss your research, please get
in touch as below. I look forward to hearing from you!

as possible. Inevitably many of us are subscribed to several electronic
discussion lists related to museum education. For those who are, your
patience is appreciated. CC)
