Abstract

Publicly accessible museums are cultural centers that enrich the life of a community. From an educational viewpoint, they provide informal, lifelong learning experiences. In Lee and Fortner's 2005 survey of geoscience educators, informal science education ranked as an important instructional approach for the future of earth science education.
