Recenzii
"Helen Chatterjee and Leonie Hannan’s edited volume, Engaging the Senses: Object-based Learning in Higher Education, is an important step towards both explaining and exploring the myriad ways in which museums and higher education can, and often do, work together."
- Sarah M. Hatcher in Museum Anthropology Review
’Although university museums historically have been and still are a major component of the museum field, there has been scarce literature on how university students can benefit from interaction with museum objects. This volume goes a long way towards rectifying this gap. The individual chapters cover a wide range of university-museum collaborations, with the individual descriptions embedded in an understanding of modern educational theory.’ George E. Hein, Lesley University, USA ’How can objects in museums and elsewhere be of value in higher education? This book is an invaluable, much needed extension of our understandings of object-centred learning into the tertiary level. Its thoughtful case studies demonstrate the role of objects - of myriad kinds - and multisensory, experiential engagements with them, in inspiring and enabling university students.’ Sandra Dudley, University of Leicester, UK

Descriere
The use of museum collections as a path to learning for university students is fast becoming a new pedagogy for higher education. The positive benefits of ’active’ and ’experiential learning’ are being recognised in universities at both a strategic level and in daily teaching practice. As museum artefacts, specimens and art works are used to evoke, provoke, and challenge students’ engagement with their subject, so transformational learning can take place. An international group of authors offer a spectrum of approaches at work in higher education today. They explore contemporary principles and practice of object-based learning in higher education, demonstrating the value of using collections in this context and considering the relationship between academic discipline and object-based learning as a teaching strategy.
