Synopsis
The Routledge Handbook of Museum and Heritage Education is a practical reference guide that shows how museums, galleries and heritage sites can offer opportunities for successful visitor engagement.Defining museums as all cultural sites that interpret collections and spaces for public education, understanding, and enjoyment, this volume argues that museum education has a central role in the development of policies, practices, and research for engagement. Including contributions from experts across the globe, the volume shows how these sites can continue to offer unique opportunities for social, physical, emotional, and academic engagement that are much needed to inform and empower museum visitors internationally. It also demonstrates how museums, galleries, and heritage sites can be utilised for the betterment and sustainability of our world and the societies we live in. Combining rich theory with innovative practice, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of museum and heritage education today.The Routledge Handbook of Museum and Heritage Education will be of interest to academics, students, and professionals who are based in the fields of museum education, heritage, adult and community education, cultural studies, social studies, psychology, and tourism.
