This course is an introduction to ways of seeing museums. We'll start with the Big Question: What is a Museum? to examine our assumptions, knowledge, and expectations of museums. Then, we'll learn how to explore museums through the lenses of institutional histories, space and place, and the people that make museums work.
To receive a Certificate of Completion for PD or Continuing Education credit hours, you must complete at least 80% of the course including all activities, quizzes, and fieldwork projects.
