Abstract

Patronage and visitor education has been of great concern to the management of museums in Ghana. The need to assess visitors' experience, education, and satisfaction to inform policy is expedient. This study looked at visitor experience and satisfaction with museum education in Ghana. Visiting and studying nine museums under the Ghana Museums and Monument Board (GMMB) and using both qualitative and quantitative approaches, the study revealed that visitor experiences, satisfaction, and education are unsatisfactory. There are issues with teaching methods, the state of exhibits and exhibition styles, and the challenge of low possibility for visitor revisit. Results show that there are low innovative educational and entertaining activities to strengthen museum infrastructure. There is a need to commit resources to strengthen museums and introduce activities that would serve as grounds for museum learning. A strong engagement of visitor education in a positive, socio-cultural and conducive learning atmosphere is very much expedient.

Abstract

For almost a decade, the Ghanaian educational system for ceramics studies at the tertiary level has allowed senior high students with various academic backgrounds to specialize in ceramics at the tertiary level. Though a very laudable idea, there has yet to be an assessment of their performance in a studio-oriented ceramic programme to inform policy and institutional decisions. This study, therefore, assesses the performance of ceramic students with diverse academic backgrounds. The study used quantitative and qualitative approaches, revealing that students with no background in art struggle with ceramic studio assignments, especially those that studied Home Economics and General Arts. Though students with a Science background appear to do well in the soil science-related courses of ceramics, there are still challenges with art concepts and art history. It is recommended that there is a need for counseling and orientation of mind for students who did not choose ceramics as their first choice and those without art backgrounds.
