説明

<p>  This paper analyses the historical development of British museum education. Today, the majority of museums provide educational services aimed at wide audiences. However, this was not the case when museums were first established as “public” institutions in the eighteenth and nineteenth century. Museums have since evolved due to changes in the social and political climate, which continues today.</p><p>  Like Britain, Japan has strong government support for the promotion of museum education. This is in response to the high demand from a lifelong-learning society and schools. This is achieved by providing a variety of learning opportunities based on unique collections of artefacts.</p><p>  This paper focuses on the British Museum from its establishment in 1759 to the present day. Its long history as an ivory tower and how it has gradually assumed its role as an educational institution is critically examined. The aim of this paper is to provide practical suggestions for the improvement of Japanese museums. The following points are raised for consideration by Japanese museums : how the stance of museums towards education has changed ; what kinds of external supports have enforced the educational role of museums ; and finally, the partnership between museums and other educational institutions for training museum educators. The HSBC Money Gallery and the eyeOpeners (Volunteer Gallery Guide) project are focused on as good examples of present educational activities.</p>
