Linger: Extending Museum Experiences to Post-Visit Phases

Research output: Contribution to conferenceAbstractScientificpeer-review

Abstract

Over the past decade, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) studies have explored ways to improve onsite museum visitor experience and foster interactive exhibitions. However, seldom studies have holistically looked at museum experiences including what happens after the visit. This paper explores ways to bridge the onsite and post-visit phases in a museum in the context of informal learning. Following a scoping review, we conducted observations where student dyads freely explored a science museum wearing a GoPro camera, followed by interviews with students (n=5) and museum staff (n=1). We identified science museum strategies and concerns that need to be taken into account when designing a program for visitors that aims to extend a museum onsite visit.
