Abstract

47 The inquiry-based approach in museum education often takes the form of an educator asking open-ended questions to facilitate discussions around artworks, while encouraging students in careful observation and interpretive processes (Terrassa et al., 2016). Openended questions might include “What do you notice?,” “Can you describe what you see?,” and “What makes you say that?” (Herz, 2010). However, although art museums are emphasizing learners’ experiences and their interpretative processes, many of these institutions still continue their “traditional deeply engrained, didactic, and expert driven practices” for adult learners (Clover & Bell, 2013, p. 40). Accordingly, adult learners are still more accustomed to lecture-based tours. For example, to encourage a group of adults to observe the details and share their imaginative thoughts about an abstract sculpture—tall, rectangular, empty in the center, and made of smooth marble stone—I asked them to imagine that they were the air surrounding the sculpture, and then asked what they saw and how they felt. Right away, one woman with a frown on her face stopped me and told me that she wanted to learn about the artist’s philosophy and intention, as well as the meaning of the artworks, and that I should talk instead of asking questions. Soon after, most of the participants walked away and looked for wall labels.
来自艺术博物馆成人项目的变革性学习经验的证据
47博物馆教育中的探究式方法通常采用教育工作者提出开放式问题的形式,以促进围绕艺术品的讨论,同时鼓励学生仔细观察和解释过程(Terrassa et al., 2016)。开放式问题可能包括“你注意到了什么?”“你能描述一下你所看到的吗?”、“你为什么这么说?”(赫兹,2010)。然而,尽管艺术博物馆正在强调学习者的经验和他们的解释过程,但许多这些机构仍然继续为成人学习者提供“传统的、根深蒂固的、说教的和专家驱动的实践”(Clover & Bell, 2013,第40页)。因此,成人学习者仍然更习惯于以讲座为基础的参观。例如,为了鼓励一群成年人观察细节,并分享他们对一个抽象雕塑的想象——一个高大、长方形、中间空着、由光滑的大理石制成的雕塑——我让他们想象自己是雕塑周围的空气,然后问他们看到了什么,感觉如何。马上,一个皱着眉头的女人拦住了我,告诉我她想了解艺术家的哲学和意图,以及作品的意义,让我谈谈,而不是问问题。不久之后,大多数参与者都走开了,去寻找墙上的标签。
