The challenge has always been to provide meaningful, relevant experiences to visitors, and this is still the aim today. Dioramas are also increasingly valued as learning tools. Contributions in this book specifically focus on their educational potential. In practice, dioramas are used by a wide range of educational practitioners to assist learners in developing and understanding specific concepts, such as climate change, evolution or or conservation issues. In this learning process, dioramas not only contribute to scientific understanding and cultural awareness, but also reconnect wide audiences to the natural world and thereby contribute to the well-being of societies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the simultaneously published book: “\u003ci\u003eNatural History Dioramas – Traditional Exhibits for Current Educational Themes, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eSocio-cultural Aspects” \u003c\/i\u003ethe editors focus on socio-cultural issues and the potential of using dioramas to engage various audiences with – and in – contemporary debates and big issues, which society and the natural environment are facing.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2018-11-22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783030001742\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-030-00175-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 215.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45385414279308,"sku":"9783030001742","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783030001742.jpg?v=1765560283","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783030001742","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
