Museums and galleries provide rich learning experiences to extend classroom learning outside the classroom. These sites invite us to connect to history and ideas that stimulate curiosity through objects, collections and exhibitions. This subject focuses on understanding how museums and galleries and their education programs stimulate learning opportunities for students and support ongoing professional development for teachers.This subject explores the reasons for engaging with galleries and museums analysing the ways they can influence learning. Whilst investigating the complexities of access to resources that support discipline areas and integrated curriculum practices. By looking at object-based pedagogy to support arts, students will discover how to broaden learning within and beyond the classroom, while increasing familiarity with National Gallery of Victoria, the Melbourne and Immigration Museums as well as other national cultural organisations.
