Matching Visitor Learning Style With Exhibit Type: Implications for Learning in Informal Settings

January 1st, 1992 | RESEARCH

In this paper, researchers from the National Zoological Park discuss ways of incorporating visitors into exhibit development and the value visitors bring to the process, specifically during front-end evaluation. The authors cite examples from the development of "The Good, the Bad, and the Cuddly: Attitudes Toward Animals" exhibit, which opened at the National Zoological Park in September 1991.
