Software de diseño de instrucción: evaluación de su utilidad para diseñar exposiciones educativas en museos = Instructional design software: evaluation of its usefulness for the design of educational exhibitions in museums

Compartir
Some museum exhibitions are designed for educational purposes. These exhibitions are part of non-formal education although, if analysed from the point of view of instruction, they have many aspects in common with the educational acti-vities of formal education. There is software developed to design activities that are proper to formal education. However, no software has been found for the design of educational exhibitions in museums.The aim of this research is to answer two questions: 1. Can any existing software be used to design educational exhibitions in museums?2. Can any existing software be used as a basis for developing specific software for designing educational exhibitions in museums?In order to answer these questions, firstly, the concepts that should be included in software for exhibition design have been selected and defined. Many of these concepts are shared with those used for the design of formal education activities; others are specific and have been defined in this research.Secondly, from among seventeen instructional design software, seven have been selected that have been able to be insta-lled and evaluated. Next, it has been verified, one by one, if they contemplate the concepts that an exhibition design soft-ware should include.The results of the evaluation are presented in a table and some observations. Their analysis has allowed to answer the questions asked.Of the seven evaluated, one, Compendium LD, can be used for the design of educational exhibitions in museums, although with limitations. None of those analysed consider important concepts such as the location of educational objects in space or the description of visitor itineraries. Compendium LD can also be a good starting point for developing specific software ​
