2 QUESTIONS
What constitutes good museum practice?
BEAR THIS ONE IN MIND
How do we make meaning?
Through language and symbols (semiotics)
Disembodied, visual and intellectual
Through action and partcipation (phenomenologically)
Embodied, tactile, kinesthetic, emotional
- Perception is related to actions
- Room is experienced through movement
- Objects are experienced by touch
WE LEARN BY USING OUR WHOLE BODY
2 PERSPECTIVES
THE NARRATIVE
Narrative constitutes
reality
Jerome Bruner
Daniel Stern
DANIEL STERN(1985 – The interpersonal world of the infant) • The child constructs its self –
the identity
• This is done by conquering domains
• This is done through social interaction
The Verbal Self
The Narrative Self
Stern talks about 5 domains
The 2 final being
A PEDAGOGICAL PERSPECTIVE
Socio-cultural perspective
Every function in the child´s cultural development appears twice:
first on the social level and later on the individual level:
first between people (interpsychological)
then inside the child (intrapsychological).
Vygotskij
The exhibitionis a situated
practice.
Zone of proximal
development
The situated practice is by nature social
Languages as
mediating resources
Shift from teaching to
learning
from a teacher-centered to a
student centered!process
Learning – Instruction
paradox
This means weneed to focus on the visitor!
And the visitor as a
participator!!
The visitor as a consumer and as a producer
