Abstract

Considering most learning to be happened without a instructor in museum except participating in education program, teaching-learning materials are very important in museum education. Therefore, it is needed to find out problems of currently being used teaching-learning materials in museum education and to discuss the directions of developing and applying them. The first problem of teaching-learning materials in museum education is not to meet the needs of diverse visitors. Second, the types and styles of them are similar. Third, children's museums rarely exhibit real remains or artworks. Fourth, broken exhibits are neglected without immediate repair. The directions of development of teaching-learning materials in museum education are 1) to be subdivided teaching-learning materials by visitors age, types and degrees of disability, education, etc; 2) to concern for developing hands-on type teaching-learning materials; 3) to consider substitutes for high-priced teaching-learning materials; 4) to seek for the ways to use real remains and artworks as teaching-learning materials in children's museum; 5) to secure a budget for repairing and to develop a care instructions for teaching-learning materials. Two ideas are suggested as applying teaching-learning materials in museums. First, diverse visitors' paths can be developed according to visitors' needs and interests, so visitors can know which exhibits are suitable for their needs and interests. And, same teaching-learning materials can be applied in different ways. For example, kindergartners can learn about the name of color with pieces of a puzzle and primary school students can put the puzzle together. So, the way to apply teaching-learning materials in diverse ways can be suggested. Second, a museum educator can co-teach with a teacher by videotelephone who are borrowed teachers' package.
