The goals of this applied research project were to identify important issues and related design implications through the study of children\u27s museums. Research methods included case studies, literature reviews, and interviews with national experts. The analysis generated design principles applicable to many museum types and similar environments such as zoos, aquaria and visitor\u27s centers. This project was sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts.https://dc.uwm.edu/caupr_mono/1017/thumbnail.jp
