Researching or evaluating families in science centers?
The November FAMILY issue of MUSEUM EDUCATION MONITOR (MEM) will highlight
ongoing science center/museum education research, evaluation and resources
related to
families, including family learning, family and community, family
programs, family-strengthening interventions, family sense-making, family
conversations, and so on.
Working in this area? I invite you to share your research with interested
others around the world.
Listings by workers at all sites of informal learning (museums, galleries,
science centres, parks, historic sites, etc.), consultants, faculty, and
students at all levels of study are welcomed.
To assist with this, MEM continues to offer a free one-year subscription
to any student in a museum-education related course or program and to any
museum educator who is currently unwaged and/or a volunteer. See
http://www.mccastle.com/Public/MEM.aspx for details.
To share your ongoing research and evaluation, just send an e-mail to me

- how the data will be presented
