Summary:碩士 === 國立臺南藝術大學 === 博物館學研究所 === 94 === Museums often disregarded children’s demands before. However, when museum field took notice to children and established Children’s Museum, they forgot the demands of adults accompanied with children. The thesis probes into how museums could do to make parents no longer absent in the children’s exhibitions. I took “Family Room of National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts” as an example. Under the framework of Sociocultural Theory, the purposes of the thesis are to understand the interactive learning process of family visitors in the children’s exhibitions, and to probe into how do family identity and exhibits characteristics affect the interactive learning process of family visitors. I took all the family members in place of a individual as a unit of research subjects. And the experiential data came from interactive process between family visitors and exhibits. Moreover, I also tried to understand the Family Room since artistic interactive exhibition is still in the beginning phase in Taiwan. Following are the findings. In the aspects of family identity, family visitors’ expectations of cognition are weaker, and they respect children’s demands much more than adult’s. In the aspects of exhibits characteristics, the exploratory exhibits are much more successful to induce interactivity than the problem solving one. Contents of visitors’ interactions deflect to creation and are weaker in cognition. Design of exhibits conforms with multi-sided, multi-user and accessible. Labels highlight how to manipulate but lack of the interpretation of exhibits concepts, collections and interaction scaffolds. In conclusion, I bring up the value of the thesis and suggestions of planning and design of exhibits and labels.
