TY - JOUR TI - Museums theme – Science vs technology in a museum’s display: changes in the Vienna Museum of Technology with a focus on permanent and temporary exhibitions and new forms of science education AU -Peter Donhauser PY - 2018 VL - IS - Autumn 2017 KW - anchored based learning KW - education KW - enquiry-based learning KW - innovation KW - museum development KW - museum display KW - science centre KW - visitor orientation AB - This paper locates the development of a science and technology museum within the history of the predominantly object-based Vienna Museum, which was founded early in the twentieth century. It portrays interactive engagement with young people in terms of its continuity with the aim of popularising science, which had been a founding principle of the museum. At the same time, this paper examines the way in which the rise of interactivity represented a radical shift from an emphasis on technology itself towards a focus upon scientific principles, a phenomenon which in turn had an influence upon enquiry-based learning.
