Taylor & Francis Ltd Amplifying Informal Science Learning
Book SynopsisThis collection explores the broad landscape of current and future out-of-school science learning environments. Written by leading experts and innovators in informal science learning, these thoughtful and critical essays examine the changing nature of informal institutions such as science museums, zoos, nature centers, planetariums, aquaria, and botanical gardens and their impact on science education. The book examines the learning opportunities and challenges created by community-based experiences including citizen science, makerspaces, science media, escape rooms, hobby groups, and gaming. Based on current practices, case studies, and research, the book focuses on four cross-cutting themes inclusivity, digital engagement, community partnerships, and bridging formal and informal learning to examine how people learn science informally.The book will be of interest to STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) educators both in and out of school desigTable of ContentsPART I: Exhibits and Informal Science Learning 1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Memory Fragmentation from Below and Beyond the
Book SynopsisThis volume suggests a model of collective memory that distinguishes between two conceptual logics of memory fragmentation: vertical fragmentation and horizontal fragmentation. It offers a series of case studies of conflict and post-conflict collective memory, shedding light on the ways various actors participate in the production, dissemination, and contestation of memory discourses.With attention to the characteristics of both vertical and horizontal memory fragmentation, the book addresses the plurality of diverging, and often conflicting, memory discourses that are produced within the public sphere of a given community. It analyzes the juxtaposition, tensions, and interactions between narratives produced beyond or below the central state, often transcending national boundaries.The book is structured according to the type of actors involved in a memory fragmentation process. It explores how states have been trying to produce and impose memory discourses on civil socTable of ContentsTable of contents Anne Bazin, Emmanuelle Hébert, Valérie Rosoux & Eric Sangar: Introduction: "Memory fragmentation" as a new heuristic tool to grasp the dynamics of political uses of the past in conflict and post-conflict settings Civil society actors Stipe Odak: Construction of Victimhood and its Fragmentation within National Frameworks Johanna Mannergren Selimovic: Gender, Memory and Peace: Struggles between Homogenisation and Fragmentation Elise Féron: Conflict memories and gender-based violence: from silencing to standardization Elise Julien: The Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge: a century of memory negotiations in Germany Thomas Serrier: Pluralism at stake: Rebelling provinces and the national master narrative in the German-Polish memories after the end of the Cold War Delphine Griveaud & Solveig Hennebert: The PSG Ultras’ annual commemoration of the 13 November 2015 terrorist attacks: a window on collective memory Historians Sandra Rios Oyola: The Fragmentation of Historical Memory in Colombia Emmanuelle Hébert: Transforming Polish-German Past: Toward a common narrative?

Book SynopsisClimatic and Environmental Threats to Cultural Heritage examines the challenges that environmental change, both sudden and long-term, poses to the preservation of cultural material.Acknowledging the diversity of human cultural heritage across collecting institutions, heritage sites and communities, the book highlights how, in Australia, Southeast Asia and the Pacific, the quest to preserve such precious knowledge relies on records and narratives being available to inform decisions now and into the future. Bringing together a diverse range of stakeholders who have an interest in and responsibility for the care of cultural heritage material and places of cultural heritage value, the book explores their thinking on and actions in relation to issues of climate change and environmental risk. Sloggett and Scott highlight the stakeholders' shared interest in drawing on their expertise to meet the challenges that environmental change brings to the future of our cultural heTable of ContentsIntroduction; Chapter 1 The Story of Climate Change: Narratives as influencers; Chapter 2 Finding unexpected data from the historical record; Chapter 3 My Country is Changing: Indigenous perspectives on climate change; Chapter 4 Climate change and rock art: a valuable resource at risk; Chapter 5 Oral histories of natural disasters in Timor Leste; Chapter 6 Changed responses to the changing threat of climate-induced fire and drought; Chapter 7 The Local in the Global: community impact and response; Chapter 8 Issues for Institutions: the imperative for heritage organisations to lead the way; Chapter 9 Conservation Education and Climate Change: What would a resilience-based conservation curriculum look like?; Epilogue; Index.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Evaluating Early Learning in Museums
Book SynopsisEvaluating Early Learning in Museums presents developmentally appropriate and culturally relevant practices for engaging early learners and their families in informal arts settings.Written by early childhood education researchers and a museum practitioner, the book showcases what high-quality educational programs can offer young children and their families through the case study of a program at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, Georgia. Providing strategies for building strong community partnerships and audience relationships, the authors also survey evaluation tools for early learning programs and offer strategies to help museums around the world to engage young children. At the center of this narrative is the seminal partnership that developed between researchers and museum educators during the evaluation of a program for toddlers. Illuminating key components of the partnership and the resulting evolution of family offerings at the museum, the book also draws paraTable of ContentsIntroduction: Early Learning in the Context of the Museum 1.Young Children in Museums Today 2.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Museums Refugees and Communities
Book SynopsisMuseums, Refugees and Communities explores the ways in which museums in Germany, The Netherlands and the UK have responded to the complexities and ethical dilemmas involved in discussing the reasons for, and issues surrounding, contemporary refugee displacements.Building upon an ethnographic study carried out in the UK with refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo, the book explores how object-led approaches can inspire new ways of thinking about and analysing refugeesâ experiences and European museumsâ work with their communities. Enlarging the developing body of research on museumsâ increasing engagement with human rights and focusing in particular on the social, cultural and practical dimensions of community engagement practices with refugees, the book also aims to inform growing debates on museums as sites of activism. Museums, Refugees and Communities offers an innovative and interdisciplinary examination of museum work with and about refugees. As such, it should appeal to researchers, academics and students engaged in the study of museums, heritage, migration, ethics, community engagement, culture, sociology and anthropology.Table of Contents1.Museums, Refugees and Communities; 2.The ‘dirty Work’ of Boundary Maintenance; 3.

Taylor & Francis Exhibitions as Research
Book SynopsisExhibitions as Research contends that museums would be more attractive to both researchers and audiences if we consider exhibitions as knowledge-in-the-making rather than platforms for disseminating already-established insights. Analysing the theoretical underpinnings and practical challenges of such an approach, the book questions whether it is possible to exhibit knowledge that is still in the making, whilst also considering which concepts of knowledge apply to such a format. The book also considers what the role of audience might be if research is extended into the exhibition itself. Providing concrete case studies of projects where museum professionals have approached exhibition making as a knowledge-generating process, the book considers tools of application and the challenges that might emerge from pursuing such an approach. Theoretically, the volume analyses the emergence of exhibitions as research as part of recent developments within materialitTable of ContentsIntroduction: Exhibitions as research - Peter BjerregaardPart I Cross-disciplinary collaboration Chapter 1 Sketches for a methodology on exhibition research - Henrik TreimoChapter 2 Joining transdisciplinary forces to revive the past: Establishing a Viking Garden at the Natural History Museum, Oslo - Anneleen Kool and Axel Dalberg PoulsenChapter 3 Ethnography, exhibition practices and undiscipined encounters: The generative work of amulets in London - Nathalia Brichet and Frida HastrupPart II Sensing knowledgeChapter 4 Exhibitions as philosophical carpentry: On object-oriented exhibitio- making - Adam BencardChapter 5 Museum objects in the marketplace - Kari K.
