Abstract

While pursuing a Master’s degree that explores the relationships between visual design, educational theory, and emerging technology, interactive designer Ryan McQuade has been developing screen–based exhibits at Richard Lewis Media Group for installation in Inner Mongolia’s first children’s museum. Using a case–study presentation of his professional work on the “I Am” exhibit for the Hohhot Children’s Museum in Inner Mongolia, China, the seminar will provide insight into the process of designing an interactive museum exhibit with an emphasis on understanding and designing for the “user.”
