Abstract

Advancements in digital technology and the evolving characteristics of the younger generation have prompted museums to transform how they fulfill their educational, preservation, and public service functions. Museums can no longer be viewed merely as repositories and exhibition spaces for historical artifacts; instead, they must evolve into spaces for learning, interaction, and cultural experiences that resonate with the lives of Generation Z. This article aims to analyze the role, function, and relevance of museums in the digital era in meeting the learning needs and cultural experience expectations of Generation Z. The study employs a qualitative approach utilizing a literature review method. Data were gathered from diverse relevant sources—including books, scholarly articles, documents, and digital resources—covering topics such as museums, digital transformation, history education, cultural literacy, and the characteristics of Generation Z. The data were analyzed using a descriptive-interpretative approach involving the identification, categorization, and synthesis of ideas found in the literature. The findings indicate that digital transformation offers museums opportunities to expand access to collections, enhance learning interactivity, and foster engagement with Generation Z. Leveraging technologies—such as collection digitization, audiovisual media, virtual exhibitions, social media, and digital learning platforms—can make museums more communicative and appealing to a generation deeply connected to technology. However, this transformation must be accompanied by improved management quality, program innovation, enhanced human resource competencies, and the presentation of information in a contextual and participatory manner. Ultimately, the relevance of museums to Generation Z is determined not only by their ability to adopt technology but also by their capacity to connect historical and cultural heritage with the experiences, needs, and lives of the younger generation.

Abstract

Museums are cultural institutions that play a strategic role in preserving, maintaining, developing, and communicating cultural heritage to the public. Attention toward museums in Indonesia continues to grow, evidenced by enhanced collection management, the organization of diverse educational activities, and increased public engagement in museum operations. Nevertheless, museums still face challenges, particularly regarding public perception; they are often viewed merely as repositories for ancient artifacts, unappealing spaces, or venues with monotonous collection displays. Such perceptions can dampen public interest in visiting museums for both leisure and learning. This article aims to analyze and describe how to strengthen the museum's role as an educational tourism destination and a vehicle for non-formal, cultural heritage-based education. The study employs a qualitative approach using descriptive methods and a literature review. Data were gathered from relevant sources—including books, scholarly articles, policy documents, research reports, and other materials—pertaining to museums, educational tourism, non-formal education, and cultural heritage. The data were analyzed using a descriptive-interpretative approach, involving the identification, categorization, and interpretation of relevant concepts and research findings. The study reveals that museums hold significant potential for development beyond their traditional roles as sites for the conservation and storage of historical artifacts; they can also serve as educational tourism destinations and spaces for non-formal public education. Strengthening these functions can be achieved through innovative collection displays, the development of educational programs, the use of digital technology, the creation of interactive visitor experiences, and increased engagement with the public and cultural communities. Museums managed through creative and participatory approaches can offer enjoyable learning experiences while deepening public understanding of history, identity, and cultural values. Thus, reinforcing the museum's role as an educational tourism destination and a vehicle for non-formal, cultural heritage-based education serves as a vital strategy to enhance museum appeal, expand public access to learning, and ensure the sustainable preservation of cultural heritage for future generations.

Abstract

This study discusses the strategic role of museums in preserving history and strengthening people's cultural literacy, especially in the context of modern education and the development of educational tourism. Museums are no longer seen solely as a place to store and care historical objects, but have evolved into an educational space that is able to provide an engaging, contextual, and meaningful learning experience for the community. Museums have great potential in increasing people's understanding of history, culture, art, and science. Through optimizing the function of museums in formal and non-formal education, their existence can contribute more broadly to the formation of knowledge, historical awareness, and cultural literacy of the community in the midst of the dynamics of modern life. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type of research. Research data is obtained through library research by examining various relevant sources, including books, scientific articles, news, and various information available through digital sources. These various sources are used to obtain conceptual foundations and information that support discussions about the function and role of museums in preserving history and cultural education of the community. The data obtained are then analyzed descriptively and interpretively by identifying various relevant ideas, connecting information between sources, and then formulating a systematic understanding in accordance with the research objectives. The results of the study show that museums have a broader function than just collecting, storing, and caring for artifacts, artworks, and historical objects. Museums also serve as a source of knowledge and learning space that allows people to understand history, art, culture, and the development of civilization in a more concrete way. The development of museum functions shows a paradigm shift in viewing cultural heritage and the relationship between museums and society. Modern museums no longer place visitors as passive recipients of information, but encourage more active engagement, participation, interaction, and learning experiences. Thus, museums can become one of the strategic institutions in preserving history, transmitting cultural values, and strengthening people's literacy and cultural awareness.
