The book gives tools that museum educators and museum guides can use to design tours, an overview of the required competences and ways to further professionalise as a guide and educator. It summarises the results of the research project Museum guide: a profession in its own right.
Background
The research project focused on the professionalisation of museum guides in art museums and history museums. The first study resulted in two lists of potential learning outcomes of an educational tour in art museums and historical museums. The second study resulted in a list of competencies. The competencies are organised into four main areas of competence:- Handling the group within the museum environment
- Communication skills
- Knowledge and pedagogy
- Professionalism
