Samenvatting
Research examines the fundamentals of a museum visit: the amount of time spent and the number of stops made by visitors. The three main purposes are to develop a methodology for studying the effectiveness of educational exhibitions defined by how thoroughly visitors use them; create a database of visitor use of educational exhibitions; generate a model for interpreting the data and establishing some parameters of relative success.
