Graduate Thesis: Making Together
In the last decade and a half, science museums have begun to open making and tinkering spaces in their exhibit halls. These spaces invite visitors to work with intriguing materials and spend more time on one investigation. Making Together examines these spaces and the ways they help to shape the larger learning ecosystem of the museum.
