Description

The Reflective Museum Practitioner explores how reflective practice can inspire lifelong learning in museums and zoos. It presents six projects that demonstrate how this process can encourage reflection, with outcomes that benefit both practitioners and visitors.

Through these projects, the contributors examine how different practitioners - including administrators, scientists, educators, and others - have applied reflective practice to their work. The book offers practical examples that can be adapted to individual needs, providing insight into "reflective practice" in museums.

With a cultural-historical activity theory framework for understanding institutional change, this book is of interest to museum professionals, scholars, and students focusing on science museums, as well as those involved in professional practice development in museums.
