Originating in a recent NSF conference held at the University of Michigan, this book examines the latest ideas about how children interact with objects and through that interaction acquire new understandings, attitudes, and feelings. Although museum education provides the primary setting within which objectcentered learning is explored, the analyses apply to a wide range of learning environments. Despite the demonstrated importance of objectcentered learning for both academic and lifelong learning, until now there has been little psychological research on the topic. Key features of this outstanding new book include:*Crossdisciplinary FocusThis is the first book to examine objectcentered learning using the perspectives of such diverse fields as science, history, literacy, and art.*Museum FocusThe explosion of interest in museums of all kinds provides a natural launching pad for conceptual and practical discussions of objectbased learning and informal learning environments.VignettesIn order to ground the conceptual analyses, each chapter includes vignettes describing people actively engaged with objects in a specific setting.This volume is appropriate for advanced students and researchers in educational psychology, cognitive psychology, science education, and persons directly involved in museum education.
