Summary: | What are the museums doing? Do people really learn from museum collections or are the inherent restrictions so stringent that these collections are by nature unable to impart new knowledge and understanding? A reform of the Norwegian museum world has taken place in recent years – what methods can we now use to make our exhibitions more interesting? The many small museums in northern Norway have tried to put on new exhibitions in order to support learning, debate and experience. But why don’t we try to evaluate the methods used thus far and to analyse both our audience’s understanding of new exhibitions and how they react to these? That might point our museums in new directions, so that they became more self-critical in future. |
