It has Come to an End

I have reached the end of my project. However, I do not know if I will completely remove myself from this topic. There is still so much more that I would like to discuss. If I had a larger readership or at least 3, then I’d like the input and insights of them. What they got from my project. Or what museums were their favorite or which ones moved them and how.

In my first podcast, I interviewed Emily. We both visited the same museum, the Anne Frank House, and were both incredibly moved by it, but for different reasons. Multimedia is truly different experience for everyone. For me, the different sounds and visuals are what moved me. For Emily it was the space and atmosphere. Everybody has a different style of learning and experiencing things. An article from the Education journal titled “The Brain: Utilizing Multi-Sensory Approaches for Individual Learning Styles” recognizes people’s different way of processing information.

Whether or not a museum chooses to use an iPod for an audio tour or if it decides the surrounding environment is a better medium for enhancing the museum’s experience, the museum is still a great place for a multimedia experience.

I hope my viewers enjoyed this endeavor of mine. It was a process of learning and discovering new ideas.

Until next time- whenever that may be,
Son
