Factores para la valoración de las experiencias en museos en el alumnado de primaria : posible huella del uso de las VTS en el Museo Picasso de Barcelona

2018 - Franco Angeli

30-46 p.

  • The present study analyses elementary school student insights of two school field trips to museums. Students were asked to assess their visit to the Picasso Museum in Barcelona (MPB), where the Visual Thinking Strat egies (VTS) teaching method was applied, and a previous non-VTS visit to another museum. Two items from a student survey were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative content-analysis techniques, in order to determine which aspects were related to positive or negative museum assessments and potential differences between the two visit types. The findings show that a large majority of students positively assessed both museum experiences, with the categories fun, interest, and collection resulting the most salient. Nevertheless, in the MPB students placed importance on the use of VTS and more emphasis on the visit as a learning experience. It is evident that the VTS method made an impression on students, even though some aspects generated controversy among the participants. [Publisher's text].
