Hi Sara,
This was such a beautiful and interesting video! It was fascinating to hear about your previous work in the Museo Regional Potosino – do you know if the principles and guidance in the ‘Manual of Inclusion in Museums’ have been adopted in other institutions?
Thank you for sharing your experience of teaching and preparation of designing tasks with differing abilities, preferences and needs in mind. It’s such a strong example of centring the student’s experience and agency over their own learning.
Hi Rosaline!
Thanks for your comment and for taking the time to watch and engage with the video.
About the manual, I don’t think it has been applied to any others museums. We did make an analysis on the rest of museums in town (around 10). But sadly, the director of the Museo Regional Potosino got a bit greedy with the knowledge and did’t want to “give them all the answers and all the hard work that easy”.
Which is really sad, I hate with politics obstruct human rights.
