박물관 교육프로그램 참여자의 경험 형성과정에 관한 연구

Abstract

In order to understand the meaning making by the attendants in museum sessions, this research mainly highlights on the analysis of interviews of pupils and then suggests proper formats of museum education programs. The programmes that held in a local museum in Busan, seven pupils joined the interview after 4 times of museum session experiences and the theoretical background for this research is based on the grounded theory to understand the process of meaning making. First of all, pupils seem to have great experience of museum sessions when they were taught by the museum objects with group formation. Secondly, various experiences of attendants which are based on the primary curriculum were useful for students to have joyful and interesting museum experiences. In the meantime, museums need to offer versatile experiences for the pupils which brings positive museum memory. Third, high quality museum teachers are definitely needed in order to support the students’ happy experience of the museum session, and what the most crucial ability for museum teachers was the atmosphere of student groups. Finally it seems that students would not only learn about knowledge which was the purpose of the session but have changed attitude towards themselves in terms of self-esteemed attitude. Furthermore, pupils tend to have positive mind about school classes and they believed that relationship with their family were affirmatively changed which was acknowledged as a positive experience of museum session.
