1.728,95 kr. Exploring the history and modern day practice of object-based learning, Shaffer outlines the rationale for endorsing this approach in both formal and informal learning spaces. She argues that museums, as collecting institutions, are learning spaces uniquely positioned to allow children to make meaning about their world through personal connections to cultural artifacts, natural specimens, and works of art. A range of case study descriptive object lessons, inspired by objects in museums as well as from the everyday world, are presented throughout the text as examples of ways in which children can be encouraged to engage with museum collections.

- Authentic Connections
501,95 kr. Examining the key components of the museum-community relationship, Authentic Connections looks at both the impact of museums on the cultural and civic lives of local communities, and the impact of local communities on the programs, collections and organisational culture of museums. Advocating an accessible and inclusive approach to museum management, Kadoyama focuses in particular on the role of museum leadership in fostering community relationships. The result offers insights into how relationships between communities and museums can be forged in practice, and how community engagement strategies can be developed, implimented and evaluated successfully.
