The Museum Educator’s Manual: Educators Share Successful Techniques

Anna Johnson,Kimberly A. Huber,Nancy Cutler,Melissa Bingmann,Tim Grove

The Museum Educator’s Manual addresses the role museum educators play in today’s museums from an experience-based perspective. Seasoned museum educators author each chapter, emphasizing key programs along with case studies that provide successful examples, and demonstrate a practical foundation for the daily operations of a museum education department, no matter how small.
The book covers: *volunteer and docent management and training;
*exhibit development;
*program and event design and implementation;
*working with families, seniors, and teens;
*collaborating with schools and other institutions; and
*funding.
This second edition interweaves technology into every aspect of the manual and includes two entirely new chapters, one on Museums - An Educational Resource for Schools and another on Active Learning in Museums. With invaluable checklists, schedules, organizational charts, program examples, and other how-to documents included throughout, The Museum Educator’s Manual is a ‘must have’ book for any museum educator.
