The question of how well Poly pop is being received has come up here before. I haven't had anyone in my class say boo about it. I have done all of my homework papers following the guidelines of the assignments,just inserting 'tiki' instead of quilts or whatever. One of the main focuses of this museum studies course is that museums are changing. What is required for museum employees is to be more well rounded and informed about all aspects of museum work. There is a lot of encouragement for innovative ideas and approaches. I did very well on all of my papers and received 9/10 and 10/10 on every one. I have already decided that the best thing to do is develop a traveling exhibit and have an on-line virtual museum. this solves a lot of issues about where, and how, and doesn't require millions of $. I have been talking with some major museums about this idea and everyone is very excited . Big Bro, I thank you for your missing piece to the education program, thats a great idea. I will work it into the outline. The program actually has alot more to it, I just gave the rough idea. Still waiting to get thepaper back from my teacher I will let eveyone know how things go tomrow, and what new inspirations arise. dawn [ Edited by: Sophista-tiki 2007-01-05 15:36 ]
