“…Research has illustrated that knowledge gain is related to exhibit type; as an exhibit becomes more participatory, or increases the number of senses involved, or includes real objects, knowledge gain increases (Cone and Kendall, 1978;Lakota, 1976;Mercer, 1981;Murphy, 1980;Simonson, 1978;Shettel, 1973;Solomon, 1974;Wager, 1975;Washburn, 1975).
