Description

​

Education is a core-business for museums. As a way to address contemporary museum practice, this class offers diverse insights into public education programming and community engagement, as well as the varied strategies employed by museums to cater to audience needs, expectations, imaginations, and educational practices. Although taught with museums in mind, the learning outcomes include enhanced interpretation and communication skills, and community-centred thinking about inclusivity and equality.
