Project Type IQP Submission date 2009-05-01 Authors Donald Gaxho, CS William T Skene, CM Nadia Marie Skorinko, BIO Kimberly Jean White, kjw1118@WPI.EDU, AE URN E-project-050109-085007 Division Social and Human Services Center London, England Sponsor The British Museum Title Gallery Evaluations at the British Museum Advisor Golding, Dominic, ID Availability unrestricted Abstract
Two galleries in the British Museum's Department of Coins and Medals were evaluated to determine their impact on visitors. Tracking studies and questionnaire surveys conducted in Gallery 68 and Gallery 69a revealed that improvements can be made. Gallery 69a would benefit from increased advertising, and the content of cases in Gallery 68 should be updated and displayed in a new fashion. We also created a formula to calibrate a people counter for more accurate visitor estimates, and modified the educational program evaluation protocols to increase feedback from students and teachers.
