Outi Turpeinen M.A. defended her doctoral dissertation, entitled “A Meaningful Museum Object. Critical visuality in cultural history museum exhibitions”, in public at the University of Arts and Design in Helsinki, Finland in November 2005. Her thesis examines the relationship between a cultural history museum exhibition and the objects on display. Specifically, it aims at shedding light on the formation of the meaning behind the exhibition. The main research questions are: How are meanings constructed for cultural history museums’ exhibition design? How are meanings represented as visual signs by the exhibition design? How does the relationship between exhibition design and museum objects, especially their visuality, affect interpretation?

The Relationship

Over the previous decade, higher education in Slovenia and Serbia has undergone considerable reforms, influenced by the Bologna process and its agenda of competence and learning outcomes. In the context of these reforms, the aim of this research is to consider the question of the relationship between the theoretical and the practical education of pedagoguesat the university level. Eleven university professors from departments of pedagogy and andragogy at the universities of Ljubljana and Belgrade were interviewed. The semi-structured interviews focused on two main research questions: 1) how they understand the relationship between pedagogical theory and practice, and the identity of pedagogy as a science in that context, and 2) their opinion about the competence-based  approach in the context of the study of pedagogy. The findings show that the majority of the interviewed university teachers hold an opinion that pedagogy is primarily a theoretical (reflective) science and, accordingly, that the mastery of theory is crucial for the development of pedagogues’ competences. Furthermore, most of them are rather reserved and critical of the competence approach as well as of the practical skills development. Although there are some differences in opinions between the professors from Ljubljana and Belgrade, this study shows that similar discourses prevail. The gap between pedagogical theory and practice is one of the major issues that have been current in pedagogical science in the recent decades. The findings of our research indicate that there is dissatisfaction with the relationship between modern pedagogical theory and practice, accompanied by the need for its reconceptualization.

The Way

This article is concerned with visual elements of exhibition design in cultural history museums and the way they produce meanings. The aim is to open up and analyze the process of constructing meanings from a visual point of view. Examples are chosen from the authors own artistic museum installations, which act as test spaces in the research. Cultural history museums can act as a treasure box for artistic work, and vice versa, contemporary art and design can give valuable tools for display habits in cultural history museums.

The Relationship

Museum activism seems to be on everyone’s lips these days. The notion of activism enters a museological scholarly and political debate that had previously been defined by questions concerning the relationship between enlightenment and entertainment, authenticity, representation, and globalization. Museum activism challenges the traditional temporal character of the museum by demanding a presentistic – part futuristic – understanding of time. The basic assumption of this article is that the traditional cultural history museums confronts the visitor with his own temporality. The fundamental problem is that museums traditionally asks questions of the temporal character of mankind, whereas activism delivers answers and demands action. This paper aims to discuss the temporal implications of museum activism.

What is a materials collection? Why is it in the library? The aim of this paper is to introduce the idea of a materials collection as a result of explorations in arts based research. This involved theorizing ideas of materiality, haptic engagement with objects and relating them to the creative process within a library environment. The collection is a response to a perceived gap between theory and creative practice expressed within the student cohort. The risk to the library comprises a possible erosion of value in the student experience, in that the service becomes marginalized in contrast to the studio based activities. The nature of the research undertaken by the student cohort at the University for the Creative Arts is considered, and the development of the materials collection is presented as a response to this inquiry. The collection forms the site of haptic learning: the sensual engagement with the world is combined with a phenomenological approach to create a space within which the relationship of theory and practice may be developed.

ABSTRACTThe article seeks to demonstrate the relationship between project theory and design practice in the course of Architecture and Urbanism at the University Anhembi Morumbi - São Paulo - Brazil from the application of the Theory of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in order to understand the interrelationship between teaching, research and extension. As a case study we opted for an architectural and urban project, called Boulevard Immigration which is being developed by students and teachers in the Model Office of Architecture and Urbanism at the University Anhembi Morumbi in partnership with Immigration Museum in São Paulo. The importance of this theme is to promote a debate on the relationship between theory and practice in the development of education in Architecture and Urbanism courses, stimulating critical, creative, collaborative and reflective student formation. As investigative procedure method was chosen a bibliographic exploratory research on the Project-Based Learning as a teaching tool that encourages the development of reflection, collaboration and responsibility with social manners and democratic behavior. As final considerations it is clear that the application of PBL provides the students and teachers a set of tools that stimulates the relationship between theory and practice in teaching and learning.RESUMOO artigo visa demonstrar a relação entre teoria e prática projetual no curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da Uni-versidade Anhembi Morumbi- São Paulo- Brasil, a partir da aplicação da Teoria do Aprendizado Orientado ao Projeto (AOP) visando compreender a inter-relação entre ensino, pesquisa e extensão. Como estudo de caso optou-se por um projeto arquitetônico/urbanístico, denominado de Boulevard Imigração que está sendo desenvolvido por alunos e auxiliados por professores no Escritório Modelo de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da Universidade Anhembi Morumbi em parceria com técnicos do Museu da Imigração, em São Paulo. A importância deste tema é de promover um debate sobre a relação entre teoria e prática no desenvolvimento do ensino nos cursos de Arquitetura e Urbanismo, estimulando a formação crítica, criativa, colaborativa e reflexiva do estudante. Como método de procedimento investigativo optou-se por uma pesquisa exploratória bibliográfica sobre o Aprendizado Orientado ao Projeto como um instrumento de ensino que estimula o desenvolvimento da reflexão, da colaboração e da responsabilidade com modos sociais e democráticos de comportamento. Como considerações finais percebe-se que a aplicação da Teoria AOP fornece à discente e docentes um conjunto de ferramentas que estimula a relação entre teoria e prática no ensino e aprendizagem. Contato principal: [email protected]

The Relationship

The present study examines the attitudes towards the relationship between theory and practice of students in the context of teaching-oriented Master's programs. The data are based on the project “intensity and stability of job-related attitudes in teacher training” (ISabEL), which was conducted at the University of Flensburg. The study analyses the change of student's attitudes towards the relationship of theory and practice during a practical semester. The attitudes were measured using a self-developed scale, which was developed on the basis of a qualitative reconstruction of Thon (2014). The results reveal that the contradiction between theory and practice tends to increase after the practical semester.

Is it possible to imagine a nuclear power plant as a memory site? In many respects, the answer is yes. Nuclear power already forms a part of cultural history museum exhibitions and closed-down nuclear plants have been documented and analysed from a heritage perspective. However, they are also highly controversial places for remembering the past, since their significance is exceptionally ambiguous. The plants stand for potential catastrophe, the complicated management of the radioactive waste and are often associated with nuclear weapons but – at the same time – they also imply hope in the future and a possible answer to the climate threat. Are closed-down nuclear power plants to be preserved in some way, and in that case why? And is our understanding of the concept of heritage to change in some respects as a consequence of this?

1939: «- if we do recognize that one of the main research missions of a natural history museum lies in the ecological types of investigation, we must obviously also admit the perfect appropriateness of handling live, as well as dead material, in the museum to the extent that the observations on the living individuals may tend to confirm or to explain the conclusions arrived at by the study of the preserved samples of natural populations.» 1950: «The side of nature which concerns society most of all is not undisturbed nature, but nature as the environment of man, and that is the field in which the educational efforts of the natural history museums could make their greatest contribution to human thought, welfare, and progress today.» 1980: «- it seems clear that museums, at least in the larger cities, may be more important as independently explorable additions to the environment itself than in the simple role of didactic interpreters of experiences gained from other sources.»

The Relationship

The article aims to report the pedagogical journey of the essence of the reflection of the theory and practice of initial training students, by gender, based on the development of the training plan and educational experiences in pre-professional practices. The objective is to analyze the effectiveness, impact and transfer of the university training process in pedagogical practice. The methodology used was qualitative, based on the beliefs of the students to arrive at subjective theories. An interview and the focus group technique were used. The analysis took place around career choice, teacher orientation, satisfaction, teacher performance, change of conceptions, finding ten common categories. We end by extrapolating the need for accompaniment, the relationship between theory and practice; the preference and greater opportunities for the female gender; These findings make it possible to contribute to the resignification of pedagogical conceptions, approaches and practice models.

Theoretical Issues

The topic of the use of architecture as reference within the creative architectural design process is not a matter given for granted, both in the architectural culture and in the teaching. The Italian architecture studio courses are based on theoretical lectures and laboratory activities. The student's design experience is built through the combined action of theory and practice. The theoretical lectures offer the opportunity to address design issues also through discussion of examples of architecture. What are the examples of architecture that we can consider useful for the design project? And how do students use them within the design project? This paper aims to answer the questions through a theoretical investigation and through the presentation of an architectural design studio at the University of Salerno (Italy). Through the combination of theoretical issues that underlie the topic and the teaching experience, we want to give a contribution on the relationship between the architecture case studies and their use within the design process.
