This study explores visitor learning in a natural history museum from the perspectives of situated learning. The purpose of this study is to understand how the visitors construct knowledge from museum experiences through dyadic discourses. The participants were two university students. They moved naturally through the exhibition with no predetermined path in a natural history museum in Korea. Data were collected in the form of audio-recorded dyadic discourses at and between exhibits and were transcribed. The transcription was coded using the conversation coding scheme, and categorized into specific learning types. The findings included (1) the characteristics of learning talks and (2) learning types created by dyadic discourses at and between exhibitions within learning contexts as museum learning experiences. Implications and future research related to visitor learning in informal learning settings were discussed based on the findings.

The organization of modern society is suddenly changing from the modern society to the ultra modern informationalized society. Various social members must satisfy cultural and artistic desires to serve museum concept and function to move the informationalized society. A lot of natural history museum in the world build cyber space exhibition lines. Audiences do not directly visit but they view but they view the exhibit, get an education, participate in the cultrue programs and earn the museum's informations. Especially, in the case of national and public museums in Korea, they do not concerned the museum architecture before processing the character and collections of the museum. Cyber museums determine museum character, policy, information, collections converge of opinion voluntary collection and grasp of location, because cyber museum can be finished be4fore the work of the future museum.

The purpose of this study was to explore the characteristics of STEAM program developed and implemented by two docents and its educational impact for the use of natural history museum. Two docents developed this program with the help of science educators who ran five times of workshop during five months. The STEAM program implemented in the natural history museum demonstrated the following characteristics. The exhibitions in museum were reached by visitors only for learning science concepts (S) out of five components in STEAM. The other components, T (technology) and E (engineering), were delivered through lectures in the room, not exhibition hall. M (Mathematics)was achieved by guessing the animal's size, or calculating the walking or running speed with the clue of foot prints. The three phases of STEAM program (presentation of context, creatively design the investigation, and emotional touch) were explicitly implemented but partially successful. Two docents participating in this study responded that they formed new or extended the understandings about STEAM education, but they had the difficulties in implementing STEAM program for various type of visitors. All visitors who participated in this study displayed the favorable responses in educational impact by STEAM program in natural history museum. The heavier emphasis on E and T of STEAM program is recommended through community-based learning. In addition, educator professional program through which docents can bridge theory into practice is suggested for revitalization of STEAM education.

The purpose of this research is to improve exhibition effectiveness by implementing hands-on exhibition technique that best provides adults with cultural resting place and children with outdoor education which simply supports school curriculum. By completing this research, the museum of natural history will become defined innovatively as a place that enables people actively develop creativity. Seodaemun museum of natural history was selected for this research and itinerary tracking method of Robinson and Melton was adopted to find out adults' and children's particular movements in the museum. At the same time, observation method was used to get information on each room's visiting and viewing rate. In order to understand adults' and children's movements, their behavior was encoded.

Natural history museums preserve and manage the creatures living in each country, so they play unique roles for bio-diversity, and in fact, their roles are really instrumental for the collection, preservation, research, exhibition and education of creatures in the 21st century. Therefore, this research has the purpose to survey the status of our country's existing natural history museums, analyze their visual perception space structural characteristics, and ultimately utilize their characteristics as basic data in planning out and designing spaces of natural history museums to be established later on. As for the research scope, the research selected as research subjects 7 natural history museums that currently have composite set of open type and mixed type and have been accommodating comparatively active exhibitions since 2000 among 10 or so natural history museums in our country. Research method is that the research analyzed the exhibition spaces of 7 natural history museums by using depthmap program which can analyze space with visual graph analysis function, and analyzed the visibility among unit areas by each natural history museum integration and exhibition contents composition. In such analysis method, the research was able to quantitatively analyze the visual characteristics of exhibition space that induces and adjusts the motion of audience. Visual perception quantitative analysis as in this research will enhance exhibition design by considering the correlation between audience and exhibited items when planning out natural history museums space to be established later on.

본 연구에서는 선진국의 주요 자연사 박물관에서 제공하는 교육 프로그램의 유형 및 특징을 살펴보았다. 미국(AMNH, FM, SM), 영국(NHM), 호주(AU), 캐나다(RTM)의 자연사 박물관의 웹사이트에 소개되어 있는 교육 프로그램, 박물관 간행 책자, 홍보자료, 연간 보고서를 수집하여 분석에 사용하였다. 연구 결과, 자연사 박물관의 교육 프로그램을 크게 열 가지 유형-이동식 박물관, 워크삽, 강좌/강연, 페스티발/(특별)이벤트, 탐구활동, 과학적 활동/연구 프로젝트, 필드트립, 청소년 학예원/인턴 과정, 대여 자료, 캠프/투어-로 나누고, 각 유형에 따른 프로그램의 예를 제시하였다. 또한 개별 프로그램을 교육적 측면에서 볼 수 있는 몇 가지 특징인 주제, 참여 수준, 전시와의 연관성, 학교교육과의 연계, 활동 수준에 관하여 살펴보았다. 본 연구의 결과는 세 가지 측면에서 과학교사, 박물관 교육담당자 및 학예원에게 도움이 될 것으로 보인다: (1) 교육 프로그램 유형과 내용을 개발하고 실행하는데 유용하며, (2) 교육 프로그램을 평가하고 개선하는 지침으로 이용될 수 있고, (3) 일반 대중에게 다양한 과학적 측면과 소장품을 소개하거나 학교 교육과정과 연관한 과학 교수 학습에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있다.

For teaching-learning to geological region of earth science part in science education, middle school, the practical uses of natural science museum are very effective. So, the appropriate uses of the natural science museum are necessary for the teaching and learning of Science Education. This study aims to consider the presentation characteristics of the natural science museum and to examine how is effective it to geological region in middle school science curricula on those uses. From the results, the natural science museum is low in multi-sided and open-endedness presentation characteristics but high in ones of accessible characteristic. And its presentations are good in multimodal characteristics using supported materials but relatively low in relevant and multimedia ones. In the museum, diorama and self-performing presentation types are not but internet ones are most. The presentations of the natural science museum are mainly assigned to knowledge region linked to basic science concepts but relatively insufficient in STS aspects, on the basis of connection the presentations with middle school science curricula. It is respected that these insufficiencies might be diminished by variable arrangements of and explanations to the presentations for understanding improvements. And, applies to the presentations in STS may be encountered, if multi-sided observations to them is available.

우리나라 대부분의 과학관에는 천문시설이 갖추어져 있고, 천문분야 전시와 교육이 어느 정도는 이루어지고 있다. 하지만 자연사박물관에서는 천문분야가 주요 분야로 인정받고 있지 못하고 그 내용도 빈약한 편이다. 수도권에서 매우 중요한 역할을 하고, 연간 35만 명 정도의 관람객이 방문하고 있는 서대문자연사박물관에도 일부 천문 전시가 있긴 하지만 다른 분야에 비해 매우 빈약하다. 자연의 역사를 다루는 자연사박물관에서 우주의 탄생으로 보여주는 천문학은 중요한 역할을 차지할 여지가 있고, 실제 해외 유명 자연사박물관에서는 천문 분야가 큰 비중을 차지하고 있다. 국립자연사박물관의 건설도 추진되고 있는 상황에서 자연사박물관에서의 천문전시와 교육이 어떤 방향으로 이루어져야 할지 논의해 보았으면 한다.
