The aim of this project is to thoroughly learn about the impact and functioning of educational programmes in Spanish museums. The sample consists of 12 museums of a varied nature and geographical distribution, across the entire diverse Spanish territory Galicia, Asturias, País Vasco, Aragón, Castilla y León, Andalucía y Madrid. By ensuring the territorial diversity as a guideline, we have been able to differentiate based on the particularities of the Spanish communities. We also sought to learn about the good practices and to strengthen the dialogue between the formal and non-formal educational institutions. This is a model of formative and external assessment about the educational action embodying a combined design of methodologies, documental-analytic as regards the educative and museographic path, and interactive when we addressed the direct observation and the in-depth interviews. We have considered each museum as an individual analysis object, case study, whose deep descriptive contributions enables the implementation of educative trends in the museum context, and to build up quality specifications, useful to enable progress to be made to the pedagogical and didactic improvement of the museum.
