Els Museus d’Esplugues, analitzant les dades de públic varem veure que els dies que obrim a la tarda i els cap de setmana el número de visites individuals era molt baix. Així que volíem plantejar algun a cosa per dinamitzar els cap de setmana, sense pressupost per contractar una empresa externa. Llavors, veien que abans de l’estiu havíem rebut una parell de peticions de pares i mares que volien celebrar l’aniversari dels seus fills al Museu, cansats del chiqui-park, i investigant altres museus que ho fan, se’ns va ocórrer crear una activitat específica destinada a públic familiar, que ens havia d’ajudar a captar un nou tipus de públic que no tenim habitualment, fora d’activitats puntuals, com Nadal o Sant Jordi. L’activitat consisteix en un conte teatralitzat, “En Fanguet fa trencadissa”, seguit d’un taller on es pinta una rajola, que tots s’enduen a casa.

Museum Learning Collaborative Homepage
The Museum Learning Collaborative project officially ended in December 2003. This website is no longer being updated but remains online as a record of the project. There is an expanded set of resources, including continually updated version of the literature database at http:://informalscience.org (Although it's called informalscience, the database includes lots of references relevant forart, history, and children's museums.) The Museum Learning Collaborative (MLC), funded by a consortium of public agencies under the direction of the Institute for Museum and Library Services, has been established to further theoretically driven research on learning in museums. This nationwide project includes a core set of researchers and museums working together to create a community of scholars dedicated to developing a common research agenda that benefits from the combined expertise of these two constituencies.
As the Internet extends its global reach, language can remain a barrier preventing people from being able to fully explore material of interest. Tate Online, the Web site for Britain’s Tate art galleries, serves as a good case study for exploring the issue of meeting international site visitors’ multilingual needs. The site contains a great deal of material that is of international interest; however, much of this is currently accessible only in English. The present study used a variety of methods to gather a set of requirements and recommendations for providing enhanced multilingual content on Tate Online. These included a competitor analysis, on-line survey of 457 Tate Online visitors, log file analysis, machine translation resource evaluation, and basic user test. Findings from this preliminary study provided information about users’ main activities on Tate Online.

The research project “Learning in the museum: the role of digital media” examines the learning potentials of digital media in science and technology museum exhibitions. The overarching research theme takes two developments into account: first, the incorporation of recent trends to collocate digital media and objects in museum exhibitions, and second, the increasingly important role attributed to museums as places of life-long learning. These two strands and the possibilities to combine them are examined in an effort to enhance our understanding of learning opportunities in museum exhibitions. In doing so, the research takes into account psychological models of learning, the complex nature of museum exhibitions as information environments, the various presentational modes that are used in exhibition designs as well as the possible contributions of digital media.

Recently there was a world competition to select the seven new wonders of the world . UNESCO, incidentally, refused to participate, perhaps because of a potential conflict with the World Heritage list of 851 “properties” . UNESCO is of course correct in recognizing that there are far more than seven locations in the world that deserve protection as unique elements of mankind’s natural and cultural heritage.
