Human Rights Museum
A human rights museum is a museum that specializes in the display of artifacts and memorabilia related to human rights incidents. Some, such as the Canadian Museum for Human Rights operate to "enhance the public's understanding of human rights, promote respect for others, and encourage reflection and dialogue". Others commemorate specific events, like Museum of Memory and Human Rights, in Argentina which "commemorates the victims of human rights violations during the civic-military regime led by former leader Augusto Pinochet between 1973 and 1990."See Museum of Memory and Human Rights.

Museum Fatigue
Museum fatigue is a state of physical or mental fatigue caused by the experience of exhibits in museums and similar cultural institutions. The collection of phenomena that characterize museum fatigue was first described in 1916, and has since received widespread attention in popular and scientific contexts. The first known description of museum fatigue was made by Benjamin Ives Gilman in the January 1916 edition of ''The Scientific Monthly''. Gilman mainly focused on the efforts of museum fatigue on how the viewing displays are placed. Gilman went on to say that the way the displays were presented caused museum fatigue. In other later studies, Edward Robinson in 1928 talked more about museum fatigue, specifically four museums that showed a lot of characteristics of museum fatigue because of how the displays were placed. Arthur Melton provided more proof for Robinson by observing visitors’ interest in the displays decreased as the number of displays increased. In a more recent st ...

Museum Education
Museum education is a specialized field devoted to developing and strengthening the education role of informal education spaces and institutions such as museums. In a critical report called ''Excellence and Equity'' published in 1992 by the American Association of Museums, the educational role of museums was identified as the core to museums' service to the public. As museum education has developed as a field of study and interest in its own right, efforts have been made to record its history and to establish a research agenda to strengthen its position as a discipline in the wider work of museums. Description Museum education falls under the broad category of informal education. Informal education is defined as "...any organized educational activity outside the established formal system—whether operating separately or as an important feature of some broader activity—that is intended to serve identifiable learning clienteles and learning objective". This definition was later ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
